Steps to Make Cookies
- Begin by gently separating the sugar wafer cookies. Pop them into the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to firm them up.
- Spread a generous, yet thin, layer of Nutella between two cookies, pressing them together gently. Return the filled cookies to the fridge for another 15-20 minutes to set.
- In a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate, stirring consistently until smooth and glossy.
- Carefully dip each cookie stack into the melted chocolate, ensuring bottoms and sides are well coated. Place on a sheet of wax paper.
- Once the chocolate has hardened slightly, dip the tops of the cookies again for an extra layer.
- While the chocolate coating is still wet, sprinkle your festive decorations on top.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them crisp for up to 5 days. Freeze for up to 3 months for extended storage.
