1. Carefully twist/cut cookies apart; save the halves with cream filling. Set aside plain halves for another use.
2. In a microwave or on the stove top in a small double-broiler, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Holding each cherry by the stem, dip in melted chocolate, then press onto the bottom of a chocolate kiss. Place on the cream filling of cookie, with cherry stem extending beyond cookie edge.
3. For ears, place two sliced almonds between the dipped cherry and chocolate kiss -- pointing upward. Refrigerate until set. With green gel, pipe holly leaves on the cream of the cookie. With red gel, pipe holly berries between leaves & pipe two eyes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
