Ingredients
- 72 Mini Nilla Wafer cookies
- 1 (7-ounce) bag of Rolos, unwrapped
- 8 ounces chocolate chips
(Optional: 1 tsp coconut oil to thin the chocolate)
Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Assemble
- Preheat the oven: Set to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange cookies: Place 36 Mini Nilla Wafers flat-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Rolos: Place one Rolo candy at the center of each cookie.
Step 2: Soften the Rolos
- Bake briefly: Heat in the oven for exactly 90 seconds. Do not exceed this time; the Rolos should be just soft enough to hold another cookie.
Step 3: Top and Chill
- Top with cookies: Place another Nilla Wafer on top of each softened Rolo, flat-side down, and gently press down to secure it.
- Refrigerate: Chill the cookie sandwiches in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate centers are firm.
Step 4: Dip in Chocolate
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the chocolate chips until smooth. Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil if desired for a thinner consistency.
- Dip cookies: Using a chocolate dipping tool or fork, coat each cookie sandwich in melted chocolate. Tap off excess chocolate on the side of the bowl.
- Set on baking sheet: Place the coated cookies back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 5: Chill and Serve
- Harden the chocolate: Refrigerate the cookies until the chocolate coating is firm, about 15-20 minutes.
Storage
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Tips for Success
- Don’t overheat the Rolos: Keep to 90 seconds in the oven to prevent them from melting too much.
- Work quickly: Add the second cookie and press down while the Rolos are still warm.
- Customize: Use white chocolate or dark chocolate for dipping to change up the flavor!
