HAMBURGER COOKIES
Ingredients:
1 box vanilla wafers
1 pkg. Keebler Grasshoppers
Frosting - yellow, red, green
Sesame seeds

Directions:

Put dots of each color of frosting on the flat side of the vanilla wafers. The frosting will ooze out the side and look like ketchup, mustard and pickles. Sandwich the grasshopper cookie between the frosted wafers. Last, moisten the top of the "bun" (wafer) with water and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
