Ingredients

25 almond Hersheys kisses
25 special dark Hersheys kisses
25 nutter butter bite cookies
50 mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup Reese’s peanut butter chips

Instructions

Using a small knife or fork, separate the nutter butter bite cookies and remove the cream filling so that you have 50 nutter butter bite cookie halves.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt Reese peanut butter chips according to package instructions and then transfer the melted peanut butter chips to a piping bag or zip lock bag with the corner cut.
Pipe a small amount of the melted peanut butter onto the flat side of the nutter butter half and place the flat side of a Hershey’s kiss over it so that the melted peanut butter chips are holding them together.
Finally, using the same melted Reese peanut butter chips, adhere a mini semi-sweet chocolate chip to the top of the nutter butter bite to make the stem of the acorn.
Chill for 5 minutes and serve.
