Ingredients
1 pouch peanut butter cookie mix
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon water
1 egg
30 Bugles® snacks
1 bag (12 oz) light cocoa candy melts, melted
15 pretzel sticks, broken in half
1 large shredded whole wheat cereal biscuit, crushed
Directions
Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, oil, water and egg until soft dough forms. Onto ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart.
Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely.
Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Dip snacks in melted candy; tap off excess. Place on cookie sheet. Refrigerate until firm.
Reheat remaining candy melts, if necessary. Frost each cookie with melted candy to look like a puddle. Immediately attach 1 pretzel piece to each cookie; sprinkle shredded cereal onto bottom of pretzel to look like broom bristles. Dip wide end of each chocolate-coated snack in melted candy; place upright in center of each cookie for hat. Let stand until set.
Expert Tips
Use an offset spatula to frost cookies with melted candy to achieve a better puddle.
