• Unwrap chocolate kisses and set aside.
• Drain cherries and dry on a paper towel.
• Assembly:.
• Melt chocolate until nice and smooth.
• Dip a cherry in chocolate until coated and set on the Oreo with the stem going side ways (it's the body & tail).
• Place a chocolate kiss, pointed side out on the opposite side of the cherry (it's the nose).
• Place two almond halves on top of the cherry (they're the ears).
• Put two red dots on the cherry body.(They're the eyes).
• You can make cute designs on the white part of the cookie with the gel.(I always make red and green holly with berries!).
