Oreo Cookie Ladybugs - {Recipe)

What you'll need:
Oreo Cookies
Red frosting
Mini chocolate chips
Small serrated knife


1. Start by separating each of the cookies in half.


2. Now, take the side without the white filling and use your serrated knife and gently saw that side in half. These are your wings.


3. Take the two wings and press them back on to the other cookie half, gently pressing them into the white filling to make them stick. Place them far enough down to fit your eyes and be sure and separate them to make it look like their flying.

4. Frost the wings with red icing and then place mini chocolate chips on top to look like ladybug spots and two for the eyes. (Tip: Put your mini chips in the fridge beforehand. After a couple minutes of having my fingers all of over them, they started to melt slightly. I also put my cookies in the fridge when I was finished.)

You could use this same idea to make cute little bumblebees, too. Just use yellow frosting to fill in the wings and black frosting to pipe on small black stripes, instead. If you try the ladybugs or the bumblebees out, link to it in the comments section. I would love to see your take on it. :)
