Nutter Butter Babies (Baby Shower) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 ounces pink candy melts (I used white candy melts with pink food coloring)
    4 ounces blue candy melts
    16 round white chocolate candy melts, unmelted (faces)
    black decorating gel (and a fine-tipped paint brush)
    16 Nutter Butter sandwich cookies
    wax paper
Preparation
    In a small dish, microwave (50% power) the pink candy melts. Don't over cook. If you do, add a small bit of vegetable shortening.
    Pink Babies: Dip 8 Nutter Butter cookies into the pink candy, the place on wax paper to set up. Before the candy shell hardens, press a round white candy melt into the upper section of the cookie, creating the baby's face. Allow to harden.
    Blue Babies: Repeat the above directions. Allow to harden.
    When the candy coating has hardened, squirt a little bit of black decorating gel onto the wax paper. Using a fine-tipped paint brush, draw the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth on the white candy melt. You can also create those features by piping icing, but I find it easier to draw them.
    Allow to harden, then serve.
