made mine with choc-covered marchino cherries with stems, mounted on 1/2 sandwich cookie. SUPER HIT FOR ALL. ALREADY GOT REQUESTS BY COOKIE-SELLERS AT CHURCH FOR NEXT YEAR.

Used "Chocolate Cats" cookies from Trader Joe's for the chocolate wafer cookies. Did not make the mice but made "truffles" out of this super easy recipe and rolled them in a variety of crumbs - graham cracker crumbs, coconut, finely crushed candy canes and finely chopped pecans. Very pretty and tasty! Tripled the recipe.

I made these for a Christmas party they were not only cute but also very tasty. I used chocolate graham crackers, then I made a batch using regular graham crackers. What a hoot! I'm making more for another party next week. Love them little mice

An absolute blast to make with children. We ate them by holding them by their tales. Lots of giggles. Oh yeah, they taste very good too.

Grandchildren loved them. Can they be frozen??

Do they have to be stored in the fridge because of the sour cream?

I have made these several times. Our church has a Chocolate Festival every October. I also make the Christmas Eve Mice which are made from Oreo cookies. The other half of the cookie I grind in the blender making fine crumbs and use them to make the Christmas Mice Cookies. It makes a more truffle like cookie, almost like a candy instead. So I can make 2 kinds of cookies from a package of Oreo cookies and they sell out quickly at our Festival. The licorice for tails can also be found at bulk food shops or as "wheels" at specialty candy stores. Fun to make and so tasty.
