    My Grandma used to make me something simiular when I was a kid. I loved it! Thank you for the recipe.

  3. Our favorite kid-friendly fall recipe is to make “acorns” from nutter butter bites and Hershey kisses. You can use the yummy filling of the nutter butter bites as the glue, and add mini chocolate chips stuck on with melted chocolate as stems (I have a full tutorial on my blog-but it is pretty easy!)
