These cute treats may take a little time, but they are simple and so cute! Serve them around Halloween or for late October birthday parties!
1/2 c. vanilla frosting, divided
36 miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
12 large Campfire marshmallows
1 drop each green, red and yellow food coloring
1/4 c. flaked coconut
12 chocolate wafers like Oreos
12 miniature peanut butter cups
12 milk chocolate kisses
Witch eyes and nose: put a dab of frosting on the bottom of three chocolate chips; press two for eyes and one for nose onto each marshmallow.
Hair: combine green food coloring and a drop of water in a small resealable plastic bag; add coconut and shake well. Spread a small amount of frosting on sides of marshmallows; press coconut hair into frosting. Place 3 tablespoons of frosting in a small heavy-duty resealable plastic bag; tint orange with red and yellow food coloring. Set aside.
Hats: spread some of the remaining frosting in the center of the printed side of chocolate wafers; press peanut butter cups upside down into frosting. Lightly spread bottoms of chocolate kisses with frosting; place on peanut butter cups. Cut a small hole in the corner of pastry or plastic bag; insert a small star tip. Fill the bag with frosting and pipe stars around the base of each peanut butter cup. Secure a hat to each witch with a dab of frosting.
Makes 12
**There are some places that sell tubes of colored frosting that may make things a little easier and faster to do.
**Using an Oreo cookie half for the base may make them stand up straighter and not fall over on the platter. Then use a stick lighter to melt the bottom of the big marshmellow to stick to the cookie.
