Ingredients

• 12 ounces almond bark or white baking chocolate, chopped
• 1 package (1 pound) Nutter Butter sandwich cookies
• red colored sugar
• 32 vanilla or white chips
• 64 miniature semisweet chocolate chips
• 32 red mini m&ms

Directions

• In a microwave safe bowl, melt white chocolate at 70% power for 1 minute; stir. Microwave at additional 10- to 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
• Dip one end of each cookie into melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place on wire racks. For Santas hat, sprinkle red sugar on top part of chocolate. I found it easier to press the cookie into the sugar after the chocolate had slightly set. Press one vanilla chip off-center on hat for pompom; let stand until set.
• Dip other end of each cookie into melted chocolate for beard, leaving center of cookie uncovered. Place on wire racks. With a dab of melted chocolate, attach semisweet chips for eyes and a the m&m for the nose. Place on waxed paper until set.
