Comment préparer Perky Penguins
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of shortening.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Let the chocolate cool slightly.
- Place a small amount of chocolate mixture on top of 6 marshmallows, then top with the remaining 6 marshmallows to create a double-layered base.
- Allow the marshmallows to sit for 60 minutes, or until set.
- Gently reheat the chocolate mixture if needed.
- Dip three-fourths of each marshmallow into the chocolate, leaving a 3/4-inch vertical white strip undipped down the front to create the penguin's body. Place on wax paper to set.
- Let stand for 60 minutes, or until set.
- Cut the Tootsie Roll into 6 equal pieces.
- Place the Tootsie Roll pieces on a microwave-safe plate and microwave for 10-15 seconds, or until softened.
- Carefully roll each piece into a small ball to create the penguin's head.
- Use a toothpick to attach two miniature chocolate chips to each ball for the eyes.
- Cut off and discard the yellow end of six candy corn pieces.
- Slightly flatten the orange and white parts of the remaining candy corn and gently press one onto each chocolate ball for the beak.
- Reheat the chocolate mixture if necessary.
- Attach the heads to the marshmallow bodies using a small amount of melted chocolate.
- Let stand for 45 minutes, or until set.
- Separate the cream-filled cookies and completely remove and discard the white cream filling.
- Cut six cookie halves to use as wings.
- Attach the wings to the penguins with the cut side facing forward, using melted chocolate.
- Attach the penguin bodies to the remaining cookie halves (bases) using melted chocolate.
- Remove the white ends of the remaining candy corn pieces and discard.
- Slightly flatten the yellow and orange parts of the candy corn.
- Attach two candy corn pieces to each cookie base as feet, using melted chocolate.
- Let stand for 45 minutes, or until set. Your Perky Penguins are ready!
