Tiny Chocolate Teddy Bear Cars

These are the cutest thing, and they were so delicious too!  A guest at my sister in law's baby shower made them.  They are so Pinterest, which I usually find means too much work, but what I liked is they are also cheap to make and kids can totally help with assembly!  So they are both a super cool party food idea and a fun (and tasty) project to do with your kids.

If you are a couponer you can buy your bars and M&M's with store rewards, or wait until the Halloween (or after Halloween) sales start up.  There are always lots of great promotions in October.

I looked them up so I could paste the assembly instructions below.  Most people seem to use melted chocolate to glue the wheels and steering wheel, and cut a slit to push the teddy bear in as the driver.  I also pasted a recipe for a "glue" using cocoa and icing sugar.  Have fun with these!  I might try to design trains for my daughter's birthday, which is a train theme.  Just need to figure out what to use for a funnel!!


Ingredients:
1 packet of mini Mars Bars or Milky Way chocolate bars

1 family packet of m & ms

1 box of Tiny Teddy cookies

Directions:
1 quantity of icing sugar icing paste for glue ( mix half cup of icing sugar and a teaspoon of cocoa powder with a few drops of hot water)

Glue each of the 4 wheels (smarties) on to the sides of the milky way bars. Press into each center a tiny teddy cookie. Glue on an m & m steering wheel for each one.
