Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • Walkers Shortbread Festive Shapes, quantity as desired

Chocolate Dip

  • 4 ounces baking chocolate (semi-sweet, milk, or white)
  • Sprinkles for decoration, as needed

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: Melt the baking chocolate according to the package directions. Using a disposable paper Dixie bowl can simplify cleanup after dipping.
  2. Prepare work area: Line a cookie sheet with wax paper for easy cookie placement and removal after dipping. Place the sprinkles in a shallow dish nearby for easy access.
  3. Dip the cookies: Dip the bottom of each Walkers shortbread cookie into the melted chocolate, then immediately dip into the sprinkles to coat the chocolate layer. This adds both flavor and festive decoration.
  4. Set the cookies: Place the dipped cookies on the prepared cookie sheet with wax paper and allow the chocolate to harden completely at room temperature.
  5. Store: Once hardened, store the cookies in an airtight container. They will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Choose your favorite chocolate type (semi-sweet, milk, or white) to customize flavor.
  • Use wax paper to prevent cookies from sticking during drying.
  • Sprinkles add color and texture but can be omitted if preferred.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.
  • The recipe is quick and requires no baking or special equipment beyond melting chocolate.
