Christmas Mice Cookies
Ingredients:
24 Oreo Cookies (can use double-stuffed for more "snow")

24 red maraschino cherries WITH stems; drained and dried
24 milk chocolate Kisses
48 sliced almonds
Colored melting chocolate for decoration (red & green)
1. Carefully twist cookies apart; set aside halves with cream filling (you can use the plain halves later for pie crust!)
2. In a microwave or saucepan, melt chocolate until smooth.
3. Holding each cherry by the stem, dip in the melted chocolate then press onto the bottom of a chocolate kiss.
4. Place onto the cream filling of the cookie
5. For ears, place the slivered almonds between the cherry and the kiss while chocolate is still melted.
6. Decorate as desired with colored chocolate (eyes for the mouse, holly leaf and berries on the snow, etc.)
