This is a great recipe, athough it is not diabectic friendly.

Very cute cookies! HOWEVER... they claim to be Diabetic friendly! WHAT? It's cookies, frosting & candy! Tell me now...does that sound Diabetic friendly to you?

I made these last Thanksgiving and put them at everyone's place setting. It truly was easy because not every recipe is as easy as it claims to be but these are. I will make them again this year.

These are so cute and easy to make. Couldn't find orange chiclets so I used orange tic tacs. Looked great.

I made these for my kids classes at school. With the peanut allergies we adjusted and used Rolo's instead of the Peanut butter cups. We also used orange Tic Tacs instead of the gum we couldn't find. Very cute, easy to make, fun to eat!

These were so easy to make. I couldn't find chiclets, so I tinted some frosting instead. They came out great!

These were a hit last year for thanksgiving. I plan on making them again this year.

I thought for sure that I had written a review of these last year when we first made them, but I see now that I didn't. (?) These were so much fun for the kids to make, and truly adorable. We were out of yellow food coloring, but the vanilla frosting looked fine on its own. Also couldn't find orange mini Chiclets, so we subsituted with a piece of candy corn on each hat. We will be making these again this Thanksgiving. Thanks for the smiles and fun.
