How to Make Fourth of July Bald Eagle Treats

Cute, delicious, and easy to make, these bald eagle treats will be enjoyed at Fourth of July celebrations, or for any occasion where you'd like to make treats with a nature theme.

EditIngredients

1/4 cup white chocolate chips
6 marshmallows
Finely shredded coconut
6 chocolate sandwich cookies
6 whole cashews
Black decorator's gel

EditSteps

Melt the chocolate. Place the chocolate into a bowl suitable for microwaving and melt the chocolate in the microwave.
- Stir it frequently as it melts to ensure an even consistency throughout.
Once melted, remove from the microwave. Coat each marshmallow with the melted chocolate. They need to be thoroughly covered so that the coconut has something to stick to.
Roll the marshmallows in the shredded coconut. Completely coat them in shredded coconut except for leave one end of each marshmallow, which should be left free of coconut.
With the uncoated side facing up, place each coated marshmallow onto a chocolate sandwich cookie. Leave until the chocolate sets.
Create a hole in the side of each marshmallow using a toothpick.
Push a cashew into the hole. This becomes the eagle's beak.
Add the eagle's eyes. Using the decorator gel, draw on two eagle eyes.
Enjoy the bald eagle treats! Serve them together on a plate with other foods for the party.
