Ingredients:
– 1 container Vanilla Icing (we used Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting)
– Red Food Coloring
– 12 Regular Sized Chocolate Chip Cookies (store bought or homemade)
– 1 small packet of Slivered Almonds
– 1 small bag of Regular Sized Marshmallows
STEP 1: Scoop all icing out of frosting container into your bowl. Drop 5+ drops of red food coloring into the icing and stir completely until you have achieved the pinky/red gum color that you desire. Set gum-colored icing aside.
STEP 2: Place 1 chocolate chip cookie onto cutting board and cut it in half with your knife. Turn the cookie upside down and generously frost each half on the bottom of each cookie half.
STEP 3: Press two marshmallows into the front center of 1 cookie half to set up Dracula’s two front teeth. Make sure the marshmallows are centered so that Dracula’s front teeth aren’t off to the side. Then, continue to line the perimeter of the cookie half with marshmallows, as a mouth of teeth. Then, place the other cookie half on top of the cookie half that’s lined with marshmallows. Do not press hard and make sure the cookie is aligned correctly.
STEP 4: Take two slivered almonds that are similar in shape and length and lie them next to each other. Cut the tips off so that only 1 side of each is now sharp. The sharp side will be the bottom of Dracula’s fang. Attach each slivered almond on the outside of Dracula’s two front teeth.
