Aren't these so cute? I made a bunch of these for my little boy's preschool graduation last week. They were super simple. I bought "fruit by the foot" to make the tassels thinking that would be the easiest way to make them. It was simple, but when I opened them, they weren't solid, they were scored so that you could tear them into shapes. Know what I mean? I looked specifically for a box that I thought was solid, but then they weren't. So that added a little complication to the process. So, if I make these again, I will buy fruit roll-ups and make the tassels with those. I got the idea from Family Fun, and they suggested rolling out a starburst and using that for the tassel. Fruit roll-ups seem a lot easier than that!
Grad Caps
Miniature Peanut Butter Cups
Chocolate frosting
square or rectangle chocolate covered cookies or graham crackers
(I used Western Family Chocolate Mint Cookies)
Fruit Roll-ups
Place a miniature peanut butter cup, bottom up, on a plate. Top with a small dollop of frosting then press on a chocolate-covered cookie/graham cracker.
For a tassel, tightly roll up a small square of fruit leather. Cut fringe on one end and attach the other end to the center of the graham cracker with another dab of frosting
