Pilgrim Hat Cookies

Two kinds. You pick. Either way you can't lose. So cute.

From FamilyFun comes this: Marshmallow Pilgrim Hats

Ingredients
24 chocolate-striped shortbread cookies
12 oz package chocolate chips
24 marshmallows
tube of yellow decorators' frosting

Instructions
Set the chocolate-striped cookies stripes down on a wax-paper-covered tray, spacing them well apart.
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler.
One at a time, stick a wooden toothpick into a marshmallow, dip the marshmallow into the melted chocolate, and promptly center it atop a cookie.
Using a second toothpick to lightly hold down the marshmallow, carefully pull out the first toothpick.
Chill the hats until the chocolate sets, then pipe a yellow decorators' frosting buckle on the front of each hat.

Another variation, only using Reese's Peanut Butter cups, Striped chocolate cookies and orange chicklets (for the buckle)
