Ingredients
Scale
Cookies
- 2 (8 oz. or 9 oz.) packages sugar wafer cookies
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 (suggested: red and green confetti sprinkles with white non-pareils)
Instructions
- Melt Candy Coating: Melt the white candy melts or bark coating together with the shortening in the microwave following the package directions, typically heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between until smooth.
- Dip Sugar Wafers: Dip three-quarters of each sugar wafer cookie into the melted candy coating, allowing any excess to drip back into the container to avoid clumps.
- Apply Sprinkles: Immediately after dipping, sprinkle the coated portion with assorted holiday sprinkles to decorate.
- Set and Dry: Place the decorated wafers on wax paper and let them stand until the coating is fully set and firm to the touch.
- Repeat Process: Continue dipping, sprinkling, and setting with the remaining sugar wafer cookies.
- Store: Once set, store the finished wafers in an airtight container for up to two weeks to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Be careful not to overheat the candy melts to avoid burning or clumping.
- Use shortening to help melt the candy easily and to achieve a smooth coating.
- Ensure the wafers are completely dry and set before storing to prevent sticking.
- You can customize sprinkles to match any holiday or party theme.
- Store in a cool, dry place to maintain crispness.
