You must go to the web site to see a picture of the darling mice cookies. I made these mice cookies for my daughter's annual Christmas party. My cookies looked exactly like the photo and tasted good. I followed the recipe exactly and the dough was very easy to handle. In fact any child who is good with play dough would have no problem forming the mice. I found it easiest to first roll the dough into balls in my hands and then slightly elongate the balls into ovals. I found that giving a slight pinch at one end helped define the face. I had trouble with the tiny mini-chocolate chip eyes but a child would probably handle them more easily. Next stick on the chow mein noodle tails and last the sliced almond ears. The ears are the most easily broken especially if you have to pack the mice in storage boxes. I overcooked my first mice slightly so I next followed the 15 minutes baking. Really cute and easy. My daughter not only had the cookies on a plate but also scattered the mice around the table as a decoration.
