Description

Light and fluffy Cool Whip Candy features a creamy, mousse-like center coated in rich chocolate. This no-bake treat is perfect for holidays, parties, or a quick frozen indulgence.


Ingredients

1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted and slightly cooled)

2 cups chocolate chips or chocolate melting wafers (for coating)

Optional: sprinkles, crushed nuts, or sea salt for topping


Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, gently fold the cooled, melted 1 cup of chocolate into the thawed Cool Whip until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Freeze the mixture for about 30 minutes until firm enough to handle.
  4. Scoop out small portions and roll into balls. Place them on the lined baking sheet.
  5. Freeze the rolled candy balls for at least 1 hour until completely solid.
  6. Melt the remaining 2 cups of chocolate chips or wafers in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  7. Using a fork, dip each frozen ball into the melted chocolate, tap off excess, and return to the tray.
  8. While the coating is still wet, add optional toppings like sprinkles, nuts, or sea salt.
  9. Let the candies set fully in the fridge or freezer.
  10. Store chilled in an airtight container until serving.

Notes

Ensure the candy balls are fully frozen before dipping to prevent melting during coating.

Use stabilized whipped cream if substituting for Cool Whip.

Add flavored extracts to the chocolate for a twist.

Can be made ahead and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Optional toppings can enhance both appearance and flavor.
