These adorable mice are no bake, and so easy to do even a child could make them. Taken from 'yummy little cook book'. For halloween you can dye the mice charcoal grey, use black liquorice for tails and red silver balls for eyes. You need a deep tablespoon to shape the mice. Ingredients:
250 g icing sugar, sifted |
200 g tin condensed milk |
175 g desiccated coconut |
red food coloring |
candy, balls silver |
white chocolate, buttons for ears or slivered almonds, for ears |
Directions:
1. Mix the icing sugar and condensed milk. Mix in the coconut. Divide the mixture between two bowls.
2. Dye one mixture dark red while the other eighter leave white or else dye pink. ( when I make white mice I use blue silver balls for the eyes).
3. Dip a clean tablespoon ( use a dessert spoon to make smaller mice)into some water and let it drip, then lift up a tablespoon of the mixture.
4. Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap. Press the mixture into the tablespoon and level it. Now turn the spoon over and tap it, so that the mixture will come out onto the plastic wrap.
5. Pinch a nose on the narrow end , then add the eyes, the ears made out of the milky buttons or slivered almonds and push a piece of liquorice, as a tail. Allow to dry.
