Full Recipe:

Ingredients:

• Vanilla wafer cookies (e.g., Voortman brand)

• Bright white chocolate melting wafers

• Light pink white chocolate melting wafers

• Mini chocolate chips

• #5 piping tip and piping bags

Directions:

1. Prepare the Wafer Cookies: Cut one end of each wafer cookie on both sides to create a pointed tip, resembling the sharpened end of a pencil.

2. Melt the Chocolate: Melt the white and pink chocolate melting wafers separately, following the instructions on the package.

3. Fill Piping Bags: Transfer the melted white chocolate into one piping bag and the melted pink chocolate into another.

4. Pipe the "Eraser": Using the pink chocolate, pipe a small section at the flat end of each wafer to resemble the pencil's eraser. Gently shake the cookie to smooth the chocolate.

5. Pipe the "Wooden Body": Pipe the remaining white chocolate over the pointed end of the wafer to mimic the wooden part of the pencil. Again, shake lightly to smooth the chocolate.

6. Attach the "Lead": Before the chocolate hardens, place a mini chocolate chip at the very tip of the pointed end to represent the pencil's lead.

7. Allow to Set: Place the decorated cookies on a parchment lined baking sheet and let them set until the chocolate hardens completely.
