Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer Lollipop's

Here is a cute and quick idea you can whip up for the kids stockings or neighbors.  I made these for Caden's classmates.  I only had about 20 red lollipops so a few reindeer's had brown noses ... lol darn grab bags of lollipops you can't count on the correct # of red. I found this idea with a FREE template on Bris Bane Kids.

What You Need:

Card Stock - Green (4 per sheet)

Red Lollipop's

Glue (I used Hot Glue Gun to attach)

Scissors

Printer

Print the template on card stock (this makes it easier to cut and hold up when gluing). Cut out your reindeer's and cut out the center for the nose.  This is the time consuming part, I had 26 to make let's just say I sat up in bed for a long time cutting and catching up on my DVR of Christmas shows :). Take a little glue to attach to your lollipop.  I love my glue gun so I used that just be careful and don't burn yourself. Let them dry and bam you're done!  If you would really like you could add a little ribbon but I was already to long into this gift.

Merry Christmas Eve :)!

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer Oreo Cookies

So I've seen these all over Pintrest and the web so I don't have ONE person to give the credit for.  If you were the brilliant person who came up with this idea, let me know and I'll make sure to give you credit, ok blogger police who leave comments on not giving credit.

Next on my list was some Rudolph Reindeer's for Cole's classroom friends!

What you Need:

Oreo Cookies

Light Brown Wilton Melts

Red Hots

Wilton Candy Eyes

Chocolate Covered Pretzels (Flips are easy)

Wilton Slotted Spoons

Microwave Wilton Melts, mine takes 2 minutes be careful NOT to burn them.  Place an oreo in the melted chocolate.  I LOVE my Wilton Candy Spoon with the slots makes gets all the extra chocolate off the cookies.  I found placing the chocolate covered pretzels on first.  I then added 2 candy eyes and added a red hot for the nose.

Place in the fridge to harden up.  I picked up a some bags at the dollar tree and off they went to school.

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer "Peanut Butter Fudge"

We were invited to Christmas party this past weekend and I was able to try out a bunch of fun things I've found on Pinterest.  This is one that didn't make it to the party due to my Peanut Butter Fudge didn't set up so I thought I'd show this one first!  

I started with my Microwave Peanut Butter Fudge recipe I posted last December.  This is a simple one to make and my MIL has actually requested that I make it and send it as her gift again this year!

Ingredients

1	cup of butter
1	cup peanut butter
1	tsp vanilla extract
1	lb powdered sugar

Directions

Prepare a pan by covering it in wax paper and spraying with nonstick cooking spray, leaving at least one inch overhang of wax paper around all edges. You can use an 8×11” baking sheet with a one inch rim or an 8×8” square pan if you want thicker fudge.

In a microwave safe bowl, combine butter and peanut butter. Microwave on high two minutes, stir and microwave two additional minutes. Stir in vanilla and powdered sugar. Mix with a wooden spoon until well combined and smooth. Pour into prepared pan, smooth, and cover with another sheet of wax paper pressed directly against the surface of the fudge. Refrigerate at least two hours and cut into one inch squares.

NOW I made my fudge in my Cornbread Silicone pan, if you do not have one of these make in a circle and then cut like a pie to get triangles.  I say invest in one of these pans if you don't already have one!  I found this idea on Mom Lid Musings.

For the Reindeer:

Peanut Butter Fudge (in a triangle shape)
Ribbon
Googly Eyes
Red Pom Poms (or red dots)
Plastic Bags (Or ziplock and cut the top off)
Glue

Take your fudge put it in a plastic bag.  I took some tape before I added the ribbon to make sure the bag would stay closed.  I took my Elmer glue stick and added some googly eyes and then added a red pom pom for a nose.  Tada all done!  The longest part of this was waiting the 2 hours for the fudge to sit up.

Hope you all had a great weekend, I'm still fighting this cold and hope to make it by to say hi to everyone later Monday evening.
