  • Glass mixing bowl – it’s always best to melt almond bark or candy pieces in a glass bowl.
  • Parchment Baking Sheets or waxed paper to place the cookies on after they’ve been dipped in the melted chocolate to dry. I do not recommend using a baking or cooling rack as the cookies might stick to the metal.

Directions

Baking Tip: If the candy coating is too thick, you can add two teaspoons of vegetable shortening to help thin out the candy but do not add any other type of liquid as the candy will seize and harden…trust me on this one, okay?

Melt the candy coating according to package directions giving special care not to overheat the candy.

Resting the cookie on a fork, spoon candy coating over the cookie and then tap the fork against the side of your bowl to remove excess candy coating.
