Seuss-iful Chocolate Treats

I'm pretty sure I saw this somewhere in my online travels, but I just can't remember where.  So, if you have posted all about this, please let me know.  When I consulted The Google the other day to see the details of how to make these, I couldn't find this specific treat so I decided to put a little something together to share the Dr. Seuss love.  This is such an easy treat that you can easily put them together for the big day tomorrow. 

For our Green Eggs and Ham treat you start with two simple ingredients.

I got the candy melts at a craft store and the yellow M&M's at a party supply store.

You can melt them in the oven or the microwave, but I opted to use the oven to make a lot at one time.  Make sure you put wax paper on your cookie sheet to make it easier to get the candies off once they have cooled.  The wax paper is very important so don't forget it.

Layer two candy melts, off set from each other.

I put them in an oven preheated to 250 degree for three minutes.

They look a little like this when they are ready.
Then you take your fancy chocolate smooshing tool to make them look eggy.
Like so....
Then you put a cute little yellow M&M on top and let them cool.  If you're in a hurry, just pop the pan in the fridge to speed up the process.
And not to worry, everyone will like the green eggs and ham.  They will love them, Sam I Am. 
The rest of our Dr. Seuss celebrations with also include the delicacy of green eggs and ham (omelets) and a colorful dessert that will take me hours to prepare (rainbow sherbet).  And tater tots.  I think the fine doctor would approve.
