Ingredients

1 pkg. red-licorice whips
24 each soft caramel candies
6 oz. chocolate chips
1 C. colored sprinkles
1 C. Red Hots
1 C. sliced almonds
1 C. assorted decors and dragees

Directions

Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Cut licorice into small pieces. Use your hands to flatten each caramel into a small oval. Press bits of licorice onto 12 of the flattened caramels to make legs. Top each with a second caramel and press edges to seal. Put on prepared baking sheet.

Put chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high about 1 minute. Stir and then microwave on high 1 minute longer. Remove from oven and stir until melted. Spoon melted chocolate over each candy. Decorate with nuts and candy.
