Viking Shield Cookies for the Feast of St. Magnus


The feast of St. Magnus, Earl of Orkney, is celebrated on April 16th. To celebrate his feast this year I made some quick and easy Viking Shield Cookies with a few ingredients I happened to have in my cupboard. You can find additional photos, prayers, and book suggestions over at Shower of Roses


Ingredients:
  • Fudge Stripes, Dark Chocolate 
  • White Candy Melts, melted
  • Hershey Kisses

Directions:


Unwrap the Hershey Kisses and place one over the center of each Fudge Stripes cookie. 


Place the melted candy (or melted white chocolate chips) into a baggie and clip off the corner with a pair of scissors leaving a small hole. Squeeze some melted candy onto the bottom of each Hershey kiss to attach them to the cookie.


Add additional dots of melted candy around the outside of the shield. Let dry. 


Happy Feast of St. Magnus!
