    I’m going to make these with my niece and nephew. They’re really little but I think they could almost make these on their own! Very fun!

    So colorful and cheerful for the holidays – these are always a hit, especially with the kiddos! You’re totally right – “easy as pie”! Why overthink it, right?!? Oh – and great tip about watching for the chocolate to look shiny so you know when to pull them from the oven!
