Instructions:
-
Prepare the Workspace:
- Start by covering a tray or cookie sheet with wax paper. This will make it easier to handle the cookies later.
-
Melt the Chocolate:
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, and shortening.
- Microwave the mixture on HIGH (100%) for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes, or until the chips are melted and the mixture is smooth when stirred.
-
Coat the Cookies:
- Using a fork, dip each bear-shaped graham cracker into the melted chocolate mixture.
- Gently tap the fork on the side of the bowl to remove any excess chocolate.
-
Decorate:
- Place the coated cookies on the prepared tray.
- Top each cookie with a graham snack cracker, creating the “teddy bear” look.
-
Chill and Set:
- Refrigerate the cookies, uncovered, until the chocolate is set. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
- This step is crucial for the cookies to hold their shape and for the chocolate to harden.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once the chocolate is set, your Cheery Chocolate Teddy Bear Cookies are ready to be enjoyed!
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
