Notes

Candy Coating Tips:

Microwave: This is a very quick way to heat the chocolate. I would recommend only heating enough chips to coat a few cookies at a time. Set the microwave to 50% power and heat the candy wafers in 30 second increments. Stir after every 30 seconds. Repeat until smooth.
Stovetop: Place the candy in a small saucepan and heat over medium low heat until smooth. Stirring constantly.
Double boiler: This is a great way to heat a larger batch of coating because the coating can stay hot without fear of it being burned. If you do not have a double boiler then you can make one using a saucepan and a metal bowl. Add 2 inches of water to the saucepan, place the metal bowl on top of the saucepan, add the candy coating to the bowl and bring the water to a boil. Once boiling you can turn down the heat. Stir until the coating is smooth.

STORE cookies in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks (once the coating has hardened).

To FREEZE these cookies, let them solidify before you place them in an airtight bag in the freezer for up to 4 months. Let them thaw to room temperature before eating.
