Way Back When-esday!!!


Edible Pilgrim Hats! Assembly Required!


It just boggles my mind that it is time to think about these again! Wow! Keith asked me what I was going to make for our church Thanksgiving dinner. Really??? Yeah. It is this Sunday! I always make a big double batch of these and the kids LOVE them (I think a few adults do too). The tray is always empty.


So without further ado....here is the (non) recipe for these. There really isn't a recipe...just a little bit of assembly!

Pilgrim Hat Marshmallow Treats
Ingredients:
Large Marshmallows (1 for each hat)
Fudge Stripe Cookies
Meltable Chocolate
Yellow Frosting

Directions:Place striped cookies about 1 inch apart on waxed paper and set aside.In a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup, melt chocolate chips at 3 second intervals until soft and runny. Using a wooden skewer, insert into one marshmallow and dip into melted chocolate to cover top and sides of marshmallow and a little around the bottom to act as glue when placed on the cookie. Using a toothpick on the top of the marshmallow, wriggle over the cookie until chocolate-covered marshmallow is sitting on top of the cookie. Use same toothpick to smooth chocolate over area if a hole shows when toothpick is removed. Place cookies in the refrigerator until the chocolate is hardened, usually about one hour.Using yellow frosting, pipe buckles onto the hats.
