Tips and Tricks

Size Wise:Sweets can be part of a balanced diet but remember to keep tabs on portions.
How to Easily Dip Cookie Balls:Keep the cookie balls refrigerated until ready to dip in the melted coating. Then, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted coating. Use 2 forks to roll balls in coating until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess coating drip back into bowl. Place balls in prepared pan; let stand until firm. If coating becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening for each 16 oz. of candy wafers.
Substitute:Prepare using 4 pkg. (4 oz. each) white baking chocolate tinted with a few drops of green food coloring.
Note:If coating becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening for each 16 oz. of candy wafers.
