Ingredients
White Cake Mix – 13.25 oz
Vegetable Oil – 1/2 cup
Eggs – 2 large
Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon
Green Gel Food Coloring – as needed
White Chocolate Melting Wafers – 12 oz
Sprinkles – 2 tablespoons
Instructions
Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla. Add food coloring until the desired shade of green is reached.
Mix with a hand mixer or spatula until a thick dough forms. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Scoop 1-inch balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The cookies should look set but still be soft. Do not overbake.
Allow cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Melt the chocolate in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring until smooth.
Dip half of each cooled cookie into the chocolate, then immediately top with sprinkles.
Let the cookies sit at room temperature or in the fridge for 5 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
Notes
• Use gel food coloring rather than liquid for a more vibrant color without changing dough consistency.
• Chilling the dough is essential; it prevents the cookies from spreading too thin in the oven.
• For the best dipping results, use high-quality melting wafers like Ghirardelli or almond bark.
