We signed up for Disney+ almost as soon as it was launched, because we love all things Disney! From the get go, one of the new shows getting the most buzz was The Mandalorian, and we started watching it immediately.
We fell in love with Baby Yoda from the very beginning, and we can't wait until they release episodes from future seasons.
If you're like my family, you can't get enough of all things Baby Yoda (and Star Wars). So, you'll love this adorable Baby Yoda Nutter Butter cookies recipe. They're super easy to make, and taste delicious too. You can make them just for fun or to host a Star Wars or Mandalorian watch party.
Prepare a baking sheet or cutting board with waxed paper.
Melt the candy coating according to package directions giving special care not to overheat the candy. If the candy coating is overheated, it will be too thick. You can add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable shortening to help thin the candy but do not add any other type of liquid as the candy will seize and harden.
One at a time, use a candy dipper to cover whole almonds in the melted candy and tap to allow the excess to return to the bowl. Transfer the almonds to waxed paper and allow to dry completely.
Next, dip each cookie into the candy melts to coat completely. Shake to remove excess candy and then place on waxed paper.
Immediately add the candy eyes and almond (ears).
Allow candy coating to harden completely. Then, using a toothpick, scratch a nose into the candy between the eyes.
Roll out fondant and cut to fit the nutter butter cookies, allowing some excess to fold down the neckline of the coat.
Fold down one side and wrap the “coat” around the cookie with the seam in the back.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Placing in the refrigerator may cause the cookie to soften.
