Instructions
In 2 separate bowls, place 2-3 Tablespoons of white frosting in each. In the first bowl, place 1 drop of red food coloring and 1 drop of yellow coloring in the frosting and stir. Play with colors 1 drop at a time until the mixture looks the color of yellow American cheese. In the second bowl of frosting, place 1-2 drops of green coloring and stir. Play with color until the mixture looks the color of lettuce.
Place 1 Tablespoon of honey in a small dish.
Take two vanilla wafer cookies and 1 chocolate cookie. On the flat side of the vanilla wafer spread about 1/8 of a tsp of orange frosting. On the second vanilla wafer (flat side) spread about 1/8 tsp of green frosting.
Place chocolate cookie (hamburger patty) between the two frosted cookies and squeeze together gently- just until frosting oozes out the sides. You may need a little more frosting- after making a few you will get the hang of how much you will need.
Dip a toothpick in honey and “paint” a small amount on top of the cookie (the “bun”). Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of honey (this helps the seeds to stick to the bun).
