At the weekend we made these acorn treats as it was feeling very Autumnal. They were so easy to make I offered to go into Max's nursery and make them with all the nursery children as they are learning all about Autumn at the moment. I did that today and it went very well. They loved making them and they liked eating them at snack time even more!
You need some mini doughnuts (Asda do a tub of about 14 for £1), a tablespoon of Nutella (or similar!) - warmed for 10 secs in the microwave to make it gooey, a bowl of chocolate sprinkle/strands/vermicelli, some chopped nuts and some Mikado chocolate sticks, (or Matchmakers or Pretzel sticks) broken into 1-2cm pieces.
The method is simple. Take the donut (the nut), dip it about a 1/3 into the Chocolate spread, then dip the chocolaty bit into the sprinkles or the chopped nuts (or both!) to make the acorn hat/cap, then stick in a Mikado stick for the stalk. Bob's your Uncle... a plateful of delicious acorns
