1 cup semisweet chocolat chips |
2 teaspoons shortening |
24 red marachino cherries with stem, well-drained |

1 tube red decorative gel |
Directions:
1. Carefully twist cookies apart.

3. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening.
4. Stir until smooth.
5. Holding each cherry by the stem, dip in melted chocolate.
6. Press onto the bottom of a chocolate kiss so that the stem extends straight out or slightly upward (that's his tail).
7. Place chocolate kiss angled sideways onto the cream filling of cookie, with cherry stem extended beyond cookie edge.
8. For ears, place slivered almonds between the cherry and kiss.
9. Refrigerate until set.
