Halloween Party Favor Treats for Goodie Bags

[RecycleMicol]

I found the recipe for the Swabs on-line. So cute! But I added the packaging idea. It reads: Swabs...Now with more ear wax!

The 'Rodent Surprise' cookies were my idea. Dip one side of the cookie (Oreos here) in white chocolate and sprinkle on chocolate sprinkles to look like mouse droppings.



Thanks for looking!

That's a very good idea!  What are the ear swabs made of?

[RecycleMicol]

There are two ways to do them, actually.  Get a package of unused lollipop sticks, found in the cake decorating section, a small bag of mini-marshmallows and stick one of the marshmallows on each end of the sticks. Dip and swirl the marshmallows up to about half-way in either melted butterscotch morsels, or white chocolate (almond bark will do) tinted with Wilton's icing paste dyes to be the color of ear wax. (a lot of yellow and a little red, which is what I used, or an orange colored icing dye would work.)

They kids were really grossed out and loved them!

The swabs are really cool & your packaging makes both items look fantastic!!! Nice job!
