Just Ducky Treats

Posted by Lori:
I just saw the cutest little ducky desserts on FamilyFun.com!  I was looking for a recipe that I made several years ago that I was wanting share with you, but never found it.  However, I think you'll like this one!  This would be adorable for a duck themed party or shower - or anytime!

Instructions for Just Ducky Treats:

First spread out a paper cupcake liner and set it on a small plate or in a bowl.

For the body, place a large scoop of vanilla ice cream or lemon sherbet on top of the liner.

Create a neck by topping the body with a spoonful of ice cream and use the bowl of the spoon to flatten it slightly. Place a small scoop of ice cream on the neck for the head. Press on chocolate chips or raisins for eyes.

For a beak, flatten an orange gumdrop and cut it into two pieces. Or you can simply insert a shelled peanut into the ice cream.

Finally, make webbed feet with pieces of fruit leather or dried apricots.
