Nutter Butter Acorns - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    24 dark chocolate kisses
    24 Hershey chocolate kisses (milk chocolate)
    1/2 cup peanut butter chips
    24 semi-sweet chocolate chips
    24 peanut butter chips
    48 Nuttter Butter Bites
Preparation
    Unwrap the Kisses and set aside. Arrange all the ingredients on a piece of parchment paper or directly on the counter top.
    Melt 1/4 cup peanut butter chips in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds. Stir the chips and microwave for 10-30 more seconds -- don't over cook. When assembling the acorns, I set the bowl of melted peanut butter chips in a larger bowl of very hot/boiling water so the chips stay melted.
    Assemble the acorns: Put a small dab of melted peanut butter on one side of a Nutter Butter Bite. Immediately \"glue\" a Kiss to the Nutter Butter Bite. Set aside, and continue gluing the rest of the Kisses. After a minute or two they will harden enough to add the acorn tops.
    Add the acorn tops: Put a tiny dab of melted peanut butter on the top of the acorn and top with a chocolate or peanut butter chip. Set aside to harden.
