  • Use a large cookie scoop equivalent to 1/4 cup of dough to form cookie dough balls.
  • Roll the cookie dough into a ball and then flatten the ball to about ½ inch thick and arrange 5 cookies on each baking sheet so they have room to spread

  • Once all of the cookies have been baked and are cooled, melt the remaining white chocolate in the microwave in 30 second increments - stirring between.
  • Dip the other half of the cookies in the white chocolate and garnish with sprinkles. Let cool completely.
  • If any white chocolate is remaining, drizzle over the top of the white chocolate half and top with extra sprinkles(optional). Enjoy!
