This weekend is one of my favorite times of the year- the start of College Basketball season! Although I'm having so much fun with my friends in Florida, I am disappointed that I have to miss my Boston College Eagles open up their season this Sunday. I have always been a fan of College Basketball and especially Boston College Basketball. While I was a student at BC (which seems like such a long time ago now), I was lucky enough to be a manager of the Men's Basketball team. I am so thankful for all of the opportunities I had as manager and all of the amazing people I got to meet along the way. Sometimes I wish I was still in college so that I could be a manager again.
In honor of the Eagles starting their season this weekend, as well as BC Football's big game against Notre Dame tomorrow, I decided to make these Edible Eagles. Aren't they so cute? They are perfect for any team with an Eagle mascot. And you only need a few ingredients to make these cute little Eagles come to life. Happy College Basketball season! Enjoy!
Edible Eagles
Idea from Noble Pig
What You Will Need:
Large Marshmallows
Shredded Coconut
1 cup white chocolate chips, melted according to package directions
Chocolate Covered Cookies
Cashews
Store Bought Chocolate Frosting
How to Construct the Eagles:
In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate chips according to the package directions.
Take a large marshmallow and dip it into the melted chocolate, coating evenly. Then place marshmallow into bowl of shredded coconut, making sure the that the coconut evenly coats 3 sides of the marshmallow. Immediately place the coconut-free side of the marshmallow down onto a chocolate cookie. Allow the chocolate to set for a few minutes.
With a toothpick or knife, poke a small hole on the side of the marshmallow and place a cashew into the hole.
Use chocolate frosting to add two eyes.
Place finished Eagles into the freezer to set for 10-15 minutes.
Enjoy :)
