Cooking with Liz and the Kids- Thanksgiving Nutter Butter Acorns

Nutter Butter Acorns

This was the year we made a road trip to see my daughter, Evie,  and her family for Thanksgiving.

Doug and I hitched a ride with Garret and Liz and our two grandsons and made the 500 mile drive to celebrate Thanksgiving and all of our blessings.

For the record, this was probably one of my favorite Thanksgivings of all.

I have so much to be thankful for,
 and my children and grand kids were all together to mark the occasion.

We were actually together for a week, and I am thankful for that time.

 "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
I Thessalonians 5:18

My daughter-in-law, Liz, came up with this first blog to do with all of the kids.
This was pinned on Pinterest several times with each cooks variation.

It turned out great and was kid-friendly.
It also afforded the cooks to sample the ingredients along the way.

 The ingredients are simple:
Hershey Kisses, Nutter Butter Bites, Chocolate Chips, and 
Chocolate Frosting to glue them all together.
(You can also use peanut butter or butterscotch chips for the top
instead of chocolate chips.)

 The boys like to make snacks and this one is perfect for Thanksgiving.

 Liz is helping Camden unwrap the Hershey Kisses while Graham looks on.

 This is a team effort.
Cooking is fun!

 The Hershey Kiss is glued with the frosting onto one side of the Nutter Butter cookie,
and the chocolate chip is glued to the other side.
Simple and simply delicious!

decoration he made at school.
Beautiful!
