Ingredients

  • 12 oz green candy melts
  • 8 nutter butter cookies
  • 16 candy eye sprinkles
  • 40 white heart sprinkles
  • 8 crown sprinkles

Instructions

  • Melt candy melts as directed on the bag. Each brand varies. I use sweet tooth fairy and microwaved them at 50 percent power for 2 minutes, stir. Microwave at 50 percent power for another minute then 30 second intervals until fully melted.
  • Dip nutter butters into the green candy melts and place onto parchment paper. Quickly add a pair of eyes to each gator. Add 5 white hearts to the front for the teeth. Add one crown to the top of each.
  • If the candy melts dry, you may use a heat gun to lightly melt and add the sprinkles where needed.
  • Let dry and serve!
