We are in day two of the Wives of Faith Christmas Carnival Blog. For more favorite Christmas recipes, visit the blog and read the comments. I really thought that these topics would be easier! I love cooking...but to pick a favorite recipe is impossible.
One of my favorite cookies to make is for my sister, Kendra. She lives almost 2,000 miles away in sunny Arizona, so I am looking forward to having a big batch of these prepared for when she makes it home for Christmas this year.
It's a simple recipe - no measurements or baking! Our family calls them "Wheat Thin Cookies". They sound strange, but true to using chocolate and peanut butter, you can't go wrong!
- One box of Wheat thins (I use reduced fat...I know, what's the point when you are using PB and Chocolate? I'm not sure. I just feel better about it.)
- Peanut butter (I recommend creamy)
- Chocolate bark (white chocolate bark also works well)
- Sprinkles, coconut, non-perils, any other favorite decorations
- Make mini wheat thin sandwiches with just a little dab of peanut butter between each.
- Melt chocolate in microwave. Be careful not to burn! (Or, if you're a heath weirdo like me and you don't use a microwave, you can melt in a double boiler on the stove.)
- Dip cracker sandwiches into chocolate and coat. Using a fork, gently remove from chocolate and place onto waxed paper.
- Decorate using sprinkles, or simply drizzle the opposite color of chocolate onto the semi-cooled cookie.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThat's super creative! I'm going to a cookie exchange this week and may have to give these a dry run before I go! Thanks so much for sharing! Love this!

ReplyDeletethanks so much for sharing!
While the thought of Wheat Thins being part of a cookie sounds weird, I will have to give it a try because it does incorporate all three of my favorite snack items.
