Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- 24 oz milk chocolate chips
- 8 oz Cool Whip (thawed)
Coating and Topping
- 24 oz dark chocolate (chopped or wafers)
- Festive sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Melt Milk Chocolate: Microwave the milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Stir well and continue microwaving in additional 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted. Let it cool to room temperature, about 10-15 minutes, to avoid melting the Cool Whip in the next step.
- Combine with Cool Whip: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Gently fold the cooled melted milk chocolate into the thawed Cool Whip until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly in the prepared dish.
- Freeze and Cut: Freeze the mixture for 30 minutes until firm. Remove from freezer and cut into 36 small squares. Transfer the squares onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze again for another 30 minutes to ensure they are solid for dipping.
- Melt Dark Chocolate and Dip: Melt the dark chocolate wafers or chopped chocolate according to package instructions. Using a chocolate dipping fork or similar tool, dip each frozen candy square into the melted dark chocolate, coating completely. Place dipped candies back on parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle festive sprinkles on top before the chocolate hardens.
- Store and Serve: Allow the chocolate coating to harden completely, then store the candies in the freezer until ready to serve. Enjoy this cool, creamy, and chocolatey dessert treat!
Notes
- Ensure the melted milk chocolate cools before mixing with Cool Whip to prevent melting and separation.
- Use a sharp knife warmed in hot water to cut candy squares smoothly.
- Chocolate dipping forks are helpful but you can also use regular forks or toothpicks to dip candies.
- Store candies in the freezer to maintain their texture and prevent melting.
- Sprinkles are optional but add festive color and texture.
