Chocolate Christmas Mice (Or Anytime Mice) - Food.com image

My mom taught my little brother and me how to make these little mice. They are so fun! I'm guessing about the quantities and yield.

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Yield 2 pounds of mice

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb cherries, with stems
1 lb Hershey chocolate kiss
semi-sweet chocolate chips, for melting
sliced almonds
icing (optional) or red-hot candies (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler and dip a cherriy into the chocolate, holding by the stem ("tail").
  • Set cherry on its side on waxed paper. This is the mouse's body and tail.
  • While chocolate it still gooey, "glue" on a hershey's kiss to the mouse's body, with the bottom of the kiss touching the cherry and the pointy part pointing out, the opposite direction that the tail is pointing.
  • Add sliced almonds in the seam for ears.
  • Decorate with icing or red hots for eyes and nose.
  • Repeat with the rest of the cherries, etc.
