How to Make Coated Cookie Drops

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a food processor, pulse 1 ½ cups of your favorite cookies until finely crushed. Transfer to a medium bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat together 4 ounces (113g) of softened cream cheese and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the crushed cookies to the cream cheese mixture and mix well until thoroughly combined.
  5. Roll the mixture into 3/4-inch balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Refrigerate the cookie balls for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
  7. In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt 8 ounces (227g) of white candy coating and 8 ounces (227g) of milk chocolate candy coating according to package directions. Stir until smooth.
  8. Dip half of the chilled cookie balls into the white candy coating, ensuring they are fully coated. Place them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  9. Dip the remaining cookie balls into the melted milk chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Place them on the baking sheet.
  10. Refrigerate the coated cookie balls for at least 30 minutes, or until the candy coating has completely hardened.
  11. Once hardened, drizzle with remaining melted candy coatings in festive colors (optional) for an extra touch of holiday flair.
  12. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
