- For each honey bee, pipe 3 chocolate stripes on each oval; insert 2 almond slices in each side for wings. Insert 2 chow mein noodles in head for antenna; insert 1 short chow mein noodle for tail. Dot with chocolate for eyes, if desired.
- Refrigerate until firm (at least 30 minutes). Store refrigerated.
- TIP: Substitute disposable pastry bag for plastic resealable food bag.
