Bears at The Beach

Besides being adorable, this beach scene if fun to make and tastes great! If you are looking to get the little ones helping you bake something, this is the recipe for you.
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, stir cookie mix, flour, butter and egg just until a dough forms.
Scoop and roll dough into 36 (1-inch) balls; space about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Using thumb or forefinger, make a deep indent in the center of each cookie. You want the indent to be as deep as possible without making a hole in the bottom of the cookie. Transfer baking sheets to fridge for 20 minutes or freezer for 10 minutes to firm up dough.
Bake cookies 8 to 10 minutes until nearly done. Lightly press 1 gummy patriotic star candy into the indent of each cookie, then bake cookies another 2 minutes until gummy is fully melted and cookie is set.
Cool cookies 3 minutes on cookie sheets, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
In a small bowl, heat white chocolate chips in microwave on high for 1 minute; stir, then heat in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, just until chips are melted and smooth. Transfer mixture to a re-sealable plastic bag and snip off one edge. Drizzle white chocolate over fully cooled cookies. Allow icing to set completely before serving.
