Recipe Tips

Size WiseSweets can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet but remember to keep tabs on portions.
How to Easily Dip Cookie BallsKeep the cookie balls refrigerated until ready to dip in the melted chocolate. Then, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Use 2 forks to roll balls in chocolate until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess chocolate drip back into bowl. Place balls in prepared pan; let stand until firm. If chocolate becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening to each 16 oz. of chocolate.
SubstitutePrepare using 16 oz. vanilla candy wafers.
