Description
Create festive Christmas Wreath Cookies using marshmallow chocolate pinwheel cookies dipped in melted green chocolate and adorned with Twizzler bows and colorful holiday sprinkles. This easy no-bake decorating project results in charming, seasonal treats perfect for holiday gatherings.
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, as needed
Instructions
- Freeze Cookies: Freeze the pinwheel cookies for at least 1 hour to harden them before decorating. This step helps maintain the cookies’ shape and makes the decorating process smoother.
- Prepare Twizzler Bows: Pull apart the Twizzlers to obtain 12 individual strings. Tie each string into a small bow using the bunny ear method. Set aside the bows for later decoration.
- Melt Green Chocolate: Melt the green melting chocolate wafers following the package instructions. Be cautious to avoid overheating. The chocolate should be just melted and smooth for easy dipping.
- Dip Cookies: Remove the frozen cookies from the freezer. Hold each cookie upside down and dip the top into the melted green chocolate, coating it evenly. Place the coated cookies onto a cooling rack to allow the chocolate to set properly.
- Decorate Cookies: While the chocolate is still wet, place one Twizzler bow on top of each cookie to simulate a wreath bow. Then sprinkle green and red Christmas sprinkles over the rest of the cookie to create holly berries and festive accents. Repeat for all cookies.
Notes
- Ensure cookies are well frozen before dipping to prevent them from breaking and to help the chocolate adhere better.
- Use a cooling rack so excess chocolate can drip off for a neat finish.
- Allow the chocolate to fully set before storing the cookies.
- Twizzler bows can be prepared ahead of time and stored in an airtight container.
- Use quality melting wafers to achieve a smooth and glossy coating.
