Donut Hole Acorns

To celebrate the First Day of Fall today and inspired by this cute idea at Family Fun, the kids and I made some super cute acorn treats out of donut holes.

Aren't they cute?

They were really easy to make and the kids loved helping.

Here's what you need:


















* Donut holes

* chocolate frosting (or peanut butter)

* chopped nuts (or sprinkles)

* pretzel sticks



Here's what you do (it really doesn't even need explaining!)


1. Dip your donut hole in the frosting, 
then in the nuts or sprinkles...


2. Add a piece of a pretzel stick as a stem...



3. Put them on a cute plate and enjoy!


*NOTE* ~ We used the boxed glazed donut holes, which, although delicious, had the tendency to crumble a bit when we were dipping them.  When I do it again, I may use some "sturdier" donuts.

    Thank you for this great idea! Instead of the peanuts due to allergies in some children I used the silver sprinkles for my son's VPK class this week. They are going on their field trip tomorrow to the park to collect acorns and leaves..so I thought this would be a great snack for him to bring on his day. Well we did bring them in yesterday and the class and 2 teachers absolutely loved them!!! My 4 yr old son came home after school and told me that his friends thanked him 4 times!!! What a hit!!! Thank you again.
