Nana's Christmas Eve Mice Recipe

Carefully twist cookies apart; set aside the halves with cream filling. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips, stir until smooth. Holding each cherry by the stem, dip in melted chocolate; then press onto the bottom of a chocolate kiss. Place on the cream filling of cookie, with cherry stem extending beyond cookie edge. For ears, place slivered almonds between the cherry and kiss. Let set (refrigerate for rapid cooling). Using the tube of red frosting, pipe eyes on each chocolate kiss. Store in an airtight container at room temp. Makes two dozen mice!
