Christmas Cookie Cake Balls

Description

These little bites of holiday magic are soft, sweet, and oh-so-festive! Crumbled sugar cookies mixed with creamy frosting are rolled into perfect bites, dipped in smooth white chocolate, and showered in sprinkles. They’re the ultimate no-fuss treat—easy enough for kids to help with, fancy enough for gifting, and guaranteed to vanish from your dessert table.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box vanilla or sugar cookie mix (baked & cooled)

  • ½ cup vanilla frosting (store-bought or homemade)

  • 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips or candy melts

  • Red & green sprinkles (or crushed candy canes, sanding sugar, etc.)


Instructions

  1. Crumble cookies into fine crumbs in a large bowl.

  2. Mix in frosting until a soft, sticky dough forms.

  3. Roll into 1-inch balls; place on parchment-lined tray. Freeze 15–20 min.

  4. Melt chocolate in 30-sec bursts at 50% power, stirring until smooth.

  5. Dip chilled balls in chocolate, coat fully, and let excess drip off.

  6. Sprinkle immediately before chocolate sets.

  7. Set at room temp (20–30 min) or refrigerate (15 min) until firm.

Notes

  • If the mixture feels too sticky, chill briefly before rolling.

  • Always sprinkle right after dipping—chocolate sets fast!

  • For variety: try gingerbread crumbs + white chocolate, chocolate cookies + peppermint, or even fill the centers with a surprise candy.
