1 cup White Candy Melting Chips
3-4 Fruit Roll-Ups
1/4 cup Dark Chocolate Melting Chips or Mini Chocolate Chips
1 Orange Starbursts
Directions:
Cut Starburst into 3 rectangular strips (1/4″ x 3/4″)
Cut each of those in half, creating 6 – 1/4″ x 3/8″ rectangles.
Now cut each of those diagonally creating 12 triangles for noses.
Unroll Fruit Rollup and cut into 1/2″ strips to use as scarves.
Line cookie sheet with wax paper.
Heat White Candy Chips by microwaving for 30 seconds stirring and repeating until melted.
Transfer to corner of zippered bag and clip tiny piece off of corner to pipe.
Lay scarf on prepared sheet and pipe a small dot of candy in the middle.
Place 2 rings so they are just touching at that spot as pictured.
Pipe additional candy on top to better secure them.
Fill the inside of each ring with white candy.
