Ingredients
- Chocolate wafers
- Chocolate frosting
- Mini peanut butter cups
- Yellow icing or candy melts
- Optional decorations (edible glitter or colored sugar)
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace: Start by gathering all your ingredients and tools. You will need a baking sheet, parchment paper, and a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped off for the icing.
- Lay out the wafers: Place your chocolate wafers on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure they are spaced out evenly so you have enough room for the peanut butter cups.
- Add frosting: Using your chocolate frosting, place a generous dollop on top of each wafer. This will act as glue to hold the peanut butter cups in place.
- Top with peanut butter cups: Carefully place a mini peanut butter cup upside down on each frosted wafer. Press gently to ensure they stick well.
- Create the buckle: In a small bowl, prepare your yellow icing or melted yellow candy. Using your piping bag, draw a small square or rectangle on the front of each peanut butter cup to represent the buckle of the Pilgrim hat.
- Let them set: Allow the cookies to sit for a few minutes so the frosting and icing can set. This will help keep everything in place.
- Serve and enjoy: Once everything is set, your Pilgrim Hat Cookies are ready to be enjoyed! They make a great centerpiece for your dessert table.
