Hickory Dickory Dock.....


My kids are in love with these little mouse chocolates! 

They are EASY and delicious (that is if you like to eat mice)
Here is what you will need:

1 Can Maraschino Cherries (with stems)
1 Bag Hershey Kisses
1 Bag Chocolate Chips
1 Small Bag Sliced Almonds (for ears)
Frosting for eyes 
(I used a white and blue, but you can do black, red or whatever)


Lay out wax paper on your counter.  Unwrap Hershey kisses and put in a bowl. Put sliced almonds in a another bowl.  Drain maraschino cherries.  
Heat chocolate chips in microwave safe bowl for 1 minute.  Stir and heat for another 30 seconds or until chocolate is melted and smooth. 
Dip a cherry into chocolate and then add a kiss.  Set on wax paper.  Continue to do the rest of your cherries.  Add almonds for ears and then use a couple drops of frosting for eyes.  Let cool  over night or put in the fridge for an hour.
Have Fun!

Thanks Gaylene for the GREAT idea!
