Zubereitung von Christmas Mice On Shortbread
- Prepare your workspace by covering it with an 18-inch piece of waxed paper.
- Pat the maraschino cherries dry using paper towels.
- In a 6-ounce custard cup, combine 2/3 cup of chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
- Microwave uncovered on high for 1 to 1 minute 10 seconds, or until the chips are softened and melted.
- Stir until the chocolate mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Holding a cherry by its stem, carefully dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring the entire cherry and stem are coated.
- Immediately place the chocolate-covered cherry onto a shortbread triangle, positioning the stem at a 45-degree angle to form the mouse's tail.
- Attach two almond slices to the front of the cherry to create the mouse's ears.
- Repeat steps 6-8 with the remaining cherries, shortbread cookies, and almond slices.
- Use the remaining melted chocolate as glue (apply with a toothpick for precision). Attach a whole chocolate chip to the base of the almond ears to form the mouse's head.
- Attach a few shreds of coconut for whiskers and a red hot candy for the nose, using more melted chocolate as glue.
- Let the cookies cool undisturbed for 50-60 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm and set.
- Store the finished Christmas mice cookies in a cool place for up to one week.
