Ingredients

  • 1 cup vanilla ready-to-spread frosting (from 16-ounce can)
  • 3 ounces vanilla flavored candy coating or almond bark, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 10 small gumdrops
  • 2 orange slice jelly candies, flattened slightly

1. Line cookie sheets with waxed paper. In small saucepan, combine 3/4 cup of the frosting and the candy coating. Melt over low heat, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat.

2. With tongs, dip each cookie in melted frosting mixture, coating completely. Lay cookies flat on waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Let stand about 10 minutes or until set.
