Description
A quick, no-bake (or optional bake) dessert made with sugar cookie mix or dough, dipped in vanilla frosting, and rolled in rainbow sprinkles. Perfect for lunchboxes and busy weeknights.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box sugar cookie mix (or 1 lb store-bought dough)
- 1 jar (16 oz) vanilla frosting
- 1 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened (optional, for homemade dough)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for flavor boost)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional alternative to frosting)
Instructions
- Prep your station by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour frosting into a shallow bowl (like a pie plate) and sprinkles onto a separate plate.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch diameter balls. If the dough is sticky, wet your hands slightly with water. Place balls on the prepared baking sheet.
- Dip each dough ball into the frosting, coating it completely. Let excess drip off and place back on the baking sheet.
- While the frosting is still wet, roll the frosted ball in the sprinkles, pressing gently to adhere. Place finished bites back on the sheet.
- Allow the frosting to set at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes for a firmer set.
- Transfer to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
Notes
If using store-bought tub dough, ensure it is not frozen solid. If frosting is too thick, thin with a drop of milk. If dough is too warm, chill it for 10 minutes. For a shinier, harder set, use melted white chocolate instead of frosting.
