Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 2 cups store-bought or homemade edible cookie dough
Decorations
- 9 mini Oreos
- 18 Rolo chocolate candies
- 18 snowflake sprinkles (optional)
- Black and orange pearl sprinkles, for decorating
Ganache
- 2 cups (240 g) white chocolate chips
- 2 Tbsp. coconut oil
Instructions
- Freeze cookie dough: Portion cookie dough into 1 tablespoon scoops on a parchment-lined baking sheet, aiming for 18 pieces. Freeze until the dough is very firm, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Prepare Oreo hats: Separate the mini Oreos and carefully scrape off all the frosting. Set the Oreo halves aside for assembly.
- Melt white chocolate ganache: In a medium heatproof bowl, microwave the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in 15-second intervals, stirring well between each, until fully melted and smooth, approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute total.
- Create ganache bases: Spoon 18 approximately 1-inch-diameter rounds of the melted ganache onto another parchment-lined baking sheet. These will serve as the bases for the cookie dough bites. You will have ganache left over for decorating.
- Assemble hats: Dip the smaller rounded end of each Rolo candy into the remaining ganache. Attach the dipped end to the flat side of an Oreo half to form a snowman hat. If using, dip snowflake sprinkles into ganache and attach them at the rim of the hat where the Oreo meets the Rolo candy.
- Coat cookie dough balls: Roll each frozen dough scoop into a smooth ball. Using a fork, dip one dough ball into the ganache to fully coat it, then gently press it onto a ganache round on the baking sheet. Before the chocolate sets, decorate the snowman’s face by placing two black sugar pearls as eyes, 3 to 4 black sugar pearls in a semicircle for the mouth, and one orange sugar pearl in the center as the nose. Finally, top the dough ball with the completed hat. Repeat for all dough balls.
- Set and serve: Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Use edible cookie dough that is safe to eat raw, without eggs or raw flour.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with candy melts if preferred.
- Keep the cookie dough bites refrigerated if not serving immediately to maintain firmness.
- Snowflake sprinkles are optional but add a festive touch to the hats.
- For best results, use small pearl sprinkles designed for decorating cookies.
