Description

Nutter Butter Referees are a delightful treat featuring nutty cookies dipped in smooth white coating, topped with candy eyeballs. Simple to prepare and fun to make, these cookies are perfect for celebrations or a sweet addition to snack time.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 nutter butter cookies
  • 3 ounces white almond bark or white candy melts
  • ⅓ cup black candy melts
  • 24 candy eyeballs

Instructions

  • Melt the white almond bark or white candy melts according to package directions until smooth.
  • Dip each Nutter Butter cookie halfway into the melted white coating to create the referee uniform. Let the excess drip off, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Melt the black candy melts and transfer to a piping bag fitted with a small tip (I used Wilton #3). Pipe thin stripes onto the white coating.
  • Dab a small amount of melted candy onto the back of each candy eyeball, then apply it to the cookies. Use the black candy melts to pipe mouths and hair.
  • Let the cookies sit at room temperature or refrigerate briefly until the coating is firm.

Notes

Ensure to follow package instructions for melting candy.
Refrigerating may help firm the coating faster.
Experiment with different colors for the candy melts to match your events.
