Ingredients
- 2 cups edible cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 9 mini Oreos (separated into halves)
- 2 cups (240 g) white chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 18 Rolo chocolate candies
- 18 snowflake sprinkles (optional)
- Black pearl sprinkles (for eyes and mouth)
- Orange pearl sprinkles (for the nose)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Dough Balls
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of edible cookie dough for each snowman (you should have 18).
- Roll each portion into a smooth ball.
- Place the cookie dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 10 to 15 minutes until firm.
- Make the Oreo Hats
- Separate the mini Oreos into halves and scrape off the frosting.
- Set aside the flat halves to create the base of the hats.
- Prepare the White Chocolate Ganache
- Combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave the mixture in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth. This should take about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- Create the Ganache Base for Snowmen
- Spoon 18 small rounds of melted ganache (about 1-inch in diameter) onto another parchment-lined baking sheet. These will serve as the melted “puddle” base for each snowman.
- Assemble the Snowman Hats
- Dip the flat end of each Rolo into the melted ganache.
- Attach the Rolo to the flat side of an Oreo half to form a snowman hat.
- If using snowflake sprinkles, dip them into ganache and attach them where the Rolo meets the Oreo.
- Coat the Cookie Dough Balls
- Remove the cookie dough balls from the freezer.
- Using a fork, dip each ball into the remaining ganache to coat completely.
- Gently press the coated dough ball into one of the ganache rounds on the baking sheet.
- Decorate the Snowmen
- Before the chocolate sets, add the decorations:
- Place two black pearl sprinkles for the eyes.
- Arrange 3-4 black pearl sprinkles in a semicircle for the mouth.
- Add one orange pearl sprinkle in the center for the nose.
- Place the Oreo hat on top of each snowman’s head.
- Before the chocolate sets, add the decorations:
- Let the Chocolate Set
- Allow the snowmen to set completely at room temperature for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Serve and Enjoy
- Once the chocolate is fully set, your melted snowman cookie dough bites are ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- Edible Cookie Dough: If making homemade cookie dough, ensure the flour is heat-treated and there are no raw eggs.
- Work Quickly: Once the ganache is melted, it will begin to set, so work quickly when assembling the snowmen.
- Storage: Store the cookie dough bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Customizations: Get creative with decorations! Add candy scarves, sprinkle buttons, or even edible glitter to give your snowmen extra personality.
