Description
These no-bake Acorn Cookies are a charming, easy, and festive holiday treat made with just three simple ingredients. Perfect for Thanksgiving dessert tables, cookie platters, or edible crafts with kids, they combine chocolate, peanut butter, and crunchy cookies for a delightful bite-sized dessert everyone will love.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bag Hershey’s Kisses (any flavor)
- 1 package Mini Nutter Butters or Mini Nilla Wafers
- 1/4 cup Peanut Butter Chips (or chocolate/butterscotch chips for nut-free)
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by unwrapping the Hershey’s Kisses and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place a few peanut butter chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat for 15–20 seconds until melted.
- Using the melted peanut butter chip as glue, attach a Hershey’s Kiss to the flat side of a mini cookie and press gently.
- Once the base is set, use a small dab of melted peanut butter chip to stick another chip on top of the cookie as the stem.
- Let the cookies rest at room temperature or refrigerate for 10 minutes to firm up before serving.
Notes
For a nut-free version, use Mini Nilla Wafers and replace peanut butter chips with chocolate or butterscotch chips. Store in an airtight container for up to 10 days or freeze for up to 3 months. These make great edible gifts or cute additions to your Thanksgiving dessert table!
