Ingredients
Scale
Cookies
- 12 oz package of Pinwheel Cookies (marshmallow chocolate)
Decorations
- 2 oz Twizzlers Pull and Peel (12 individual strings)
- 6 oz Green Melting Chocolate Wafers (about half a bag)
- Green and Red Christmas Sprinkles
Instructions
- Freeze Cookies: Freeze the pinwheel cookies for at least 1 hour to harden them before decorating, which helps maintain their shape and makes the decorating process easier.
- Prepare Twizzler Bows: Pull apart the Twizzlers to get 12 individual strings. Tie each string into a small bow using the bunny ear method and set aside for decorating.
- Melt Green Chocolate: Melt the green melting chocolate wafers according to the package directions. Be careful not to overheat — the chocolate should be just melted and smooth for easy dipping.
- Dip Cookies: Remove the frozen cookies from the freezer. Hold each pinwheel cookie upside down and dip the top into the melted green chocolate, coating it evenly. Then place the coated cookie onto a cooling rack to allow the chocolate to set.
- Decorate Cookies: While the chocolate is still wet, immediately place one Twizzler bow on top of each cookie to resemble a wreath bow. Sprinkle the green and red Christmas sprinkles over the rest of the cookie to mimic holly berries and festive accents. Repeat for all cookies.
Notes
- Store decorated cookies wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator to keep fresh.
- Cookies will last up to 3 days after decorating.
- Use the bunny ear method to easily tie small bows with the Twizzler strings.
- Ensure chocolate is not overheated to avoid it becoming too thick or grainy.
