NUTTER BUTTER BABIES - BABY SHOWER RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:
- *Set note at end before beginning. In a small bowl, microwave about 1/2 cup of a desired color of candy melts just until melted as directed on package, stirring in between. Don't overheat or the candy will separate. Working on 2-3 cookies at a time, dip the cookies into the melted candy, then place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. (Candy can be reheated slightly as needed). Immediately, press an unmelted white (or chocolate) candy melt onto the top section of the cookie. This will be the baby's face. Set aside to harden. (I placed some of the white candies flat side up, and some pointy side up using the little center tip as the nose). When the coating has hardened, squirt a little of the decorating gel onto a saucer or wax paper and, using the artist brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white (or chocolate) candy melt. (I used a toothpick to help). I went a little crazy on a few adding hair and nostrils!! :) Allow time for cookies to set before serving. (Note- The decorating gel does not set so the cookies can't be stacked on top of each other). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *NOTE: After doing a few as directed above, I found it easier to paint the baby faces on all the white and chocolate candies first. Then carefully placing one on the cookies as they were dipped, working on 2-3 cookies at a time so the melting candy doesn't harden too quickly. Also, I only dipped the front sides of the cookies. It makes them less sweet and also extends the melted candy so more cookies can be dipped.
NUTTER BUTTER BABIES (BABY SHOWER)
Next time you throw a baby shower, you have to make these adorable little gems. I made them in pink and blue, but neutral colors like green and yellow would work.

Steps:
- In a small dish, microwave (50% power) the pink candy melts. Don't over cook. If you do, add a small bit of vegetable shortening.
- Pink Babies: Dip 8 Nutter Butter cookies into the pink candy, the place on wax paper to set up. Before the candy shell hardens, press a round white candy melt into the upper section of the cookie, creating the baby's face. Allow to harden.
- Blue Babies: Repeat the above directions. Allow to harden.
- When the candy coating has hardened, squirt a little bit of black decorating gel onto the wax paper. Using a fine-tipped paint brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white candy melt. You can also create those features by piping icing, but I find it easier to draw them.
- Allow to harden, then serve.

Steps:
- Combine ingredients in a beer mug.
- Stir and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe bananas. This will ensure that your Nutter Butter Babies are moist and flavorful.
- Mash the bananas well. This will help to create a smooth batter.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the Nutter Butter Babies tough.
- Bake the Nutter Butter Babies at the correct temperature. If the oven is too hot, the Nutter Butter Babies will burn. If the oven is too cool, the Nutter Butter Babies will not cook through.
- Let the Nutter Butter Babies cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Be creative with your frosting. You can use any type of frosting you like, such as chocolate, vanilla, or peanut butter. You can also add sprinkles, chopped nuts, or other decorations.
