Nutter Butter Referees

Nutter Butter Referees are themed treats made by dipping the lower half of Nutter Butter cookies in vanilla candy coating. After the coating sets, black frosting is piped in stripes and designs to resemble referee shirts, and edible candy eyes are added for facial detail. These creative snacks combine the peanut butter flavor of the cookies with a sweet vanilla exterior and decorative touches.

Description

The recipe involves melting vanilla candy coating to dip each Nutter Butter cookie halfway before allowing the coating to harden on wax paper. Black frosting is used to create four vertical stripes, mimicking a referee’s uniform. Candy eyes are attached with frosting to form a face, and additional facial features like mouth and hair are drawn with piping tips or resealable bags filled with frosting. The process requires some setting time but yields playful and visually appealing cookies.

These treats are ideal for themed parties or fun snacks and combine the familiar peanut butter cookie with a smooth vanilla coating and decorative frosting details.

  • black frosting
  • Candy eyes edible
