Mermaid Party Clam Cookies

Mermaid Party Clam Cookies

Got a kid at home who’s having a mermaid party? Need a cute snack for your next Under the Sea Adventure? These Clam Cookies are the perfect party food for your mermaid extravaganza! They are totally delicious, beautiful to look at, and best of all, only take about 10 minutes to make! Vanilla wafers, your icing colors of choice, and edible “pearls” come together in one adorable little treat. You can even make a mermaid party activity out of it and let the kids assemble their own seashell cookies. The kids will have fun creating something on their own with minimal supervision on your part. You can prepare the supplies ahead of time and mix together the icing colors. Then, just set them out on the table before the party. They will really enjoy getting to pick their colors and doing something hands-on. Plus, letting your mermaid party guests take the wheel means one less thing for you to prepare before the shindig starts!

Why do we love these Mermaid Party Clam Cookies?

These seashell cookies are fantastic for an under the sea themed birthday party, a mermaid slumber party with the girls, as a snack for a movie night featuring The Little Mermaid, or just because! And for those who don’t have the best baking skills, you won’t even need to turn the oven on to enjoy these seashell cookies. They are just about as close to foolproof as you can get!

What do I need to make these Mermaid Party Clam Cookies?

To make your own adorable seashell cookies, you’ll need just four simple ingredients:

  • Vanilla Wafers
  • Vanilla Marshmallow Frosting
  • White Sixlets Candy
  • Food Coloring – We used Purple, teal, pink, & yellow


Mermaid Party Clam Cookies

Directions:

  1. Divide frosting equally into 4 bowls. Add 1-2 drops of food coloring and mix well.
  2. Spread about 1 Tablespoon of frosting on each vanilla wafer. (You can also pipe on if you prefer.)
  3. Add one “pearl” (Sixlet) towards the front of the frosting and top with a plain vanilla wafer.
  4. Enjoy this fun treat!

Makes about 2 dozen clams.
