Ingredients
Scale
Cookies
- 2 (8 oz. or 9 oz.) packages sugar wafer cookies
Dipping Coating
- 1 (1 lb.) package white candy melts or 1 (24 oz.) package white bark coating
- 1 tablespoon shortening
Decorations
- Assorted red, green, & white sprinkles (red and green confetti sprinkles with white non-pareils recommended)
Instructions
- Melt the Coating: Melt the white candy melts or bark coating along with 1 tablespoon of shortening in the microwave according to package directions, typically heating in 30-second intervals and stirring well between each interval to ensure a smooth, even melt.
- Dip the Cookies: Hold a sugar wafer cookie and dip approximately three-quarters of it into the melted white chocolate coating, allowing any excess coating to drip back into the bowl to avoid thick clumps.
- Decorate: Immediately sprinkle the coated area of the cookie with your choice of assorted red, green, and white sprinkles to give a festive holiday look.
- Set the Coating: Place the dipped and decorated wafer cookies on wax paper to allow the coating to fully set and harden at room temperature.
- Repeat Process: Continue dipping, sprinkling, and setting with the remaining sugar wafer cookies until all are coated and decorated.
- Store Properly: Once the coating has fully set, store the decorated sugar wafers in an airtight container. They will keep well for up to two weeks, making them perfect for holiday gifting or parties.
Notes
- If the melted coating becomes too thick, reheat gently in the microwave in 10-second increments, stirring thoroughly each time.
- Use wax paper or parchment paper to prevent sticking while the coating sets.
- Substitute sprinkles according to your preference to match other holiday themes.
- For best results, prepare and store these treats in a cool, dry place to prevent melting or softening of the coating.
