Recipe Tips

Size Wise
With their built-in portion control, these seasonal cookie balls can be enjoyed on occasion.
How to Easily Dip Balls
Keep the cookie balls refrigerated until ready to dip in the melted coating. Then, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted coating. Use 2 forks to roll balls in coating until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess coating drip back into bowl. Place balls in prepared pan; let stand until firm.
Tip
If coating becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening to each 16 oz. of candy wafers.
