Directions

RESERVE 48 wafers for bun tops and bottoms.

PLACE remaining wafers in large resealable bag. Crush into small pieces using a rolling pin. Combine wafer crumbs (about 1 1/2 cups) with powdered sugar and salt in medium bowl.

MICROWAVE morsels and milk in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 45 seconds; STIR. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until smooth.

POUR chocolate mixture into wafer mixture; stir until combined. Cool for 10 minutes. Line baking sheet with wax paper. Roll mixture into 24, 1-inch (about 1 tablespoon each) balls. Place each ball on prepared sheet; flatten slightly to form burger patties.

COMBINE coconut, water and green food coloring in small, resealable plastic bag. Seal bag and shake to coat evenly with color.

TO ASSEMBLE:
PLACE 24 wafers, rounded side down on prepared baking sheet. Top each wafer with 1 burger patty. Top each burger patty with 1 teaspoon colored coconut. Squeeze decorating gels on top of coconut. Top with remaining wafers. Brush tops of wafers with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.

* A 12-oz. box of vanilla wafers contains about 88 wafers.

TIPS:
• Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. Great birthday or slumber party activity.
• Cut apricot fruit rollups into small 1/2-inch squares to create cheese for the mini burgers.

Remember to follow baking instructions before consuming.

My grandaughter and I made these for a Doo Wop party. They were great and I even gave out a few copies of the recipe. Will surely make them again thanks to whoever came up with these..

This is a clever and easy to make recipe. I made it just because my 3 and 5 year old grandchildren were coming over for the day. They loved them and asked to take the leftovers home. Fun Dessert!.
