Acorn Cookies

These Acorn Cookies are so easy to make with no baking required and perfect for fall!  My friend Amy made these for her kids and I loved how pretty they turned out.  They are simple to make and it would be a fun project for the kids to help with.  I think this may be a fun dessert for them to eat for Thanksgiving!

With only four ingredients you can make these quickly. in a microwave (or in a double boiler), melt chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Spread the flat side of each kiss with a small amount of melted chocolate; immediately attach each to a cookie. Cut a small hole in the corner of a plastic bag; insert a small round tip. Fill with remaining melted chocolate. Pipe a dot of chocolate onto each acorn and add a chocolate chip for the stem.  Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets and refrigerate until set.  Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
