Base Ingredients
- 1 box fudge marshmallow cookies
Toppings and Decoration
- 12 pieces raw almonds
- 6 pieces wafer rolls
Sweet Coating
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Crush Cookies: Crush the fudge marshmallow cookies into small pieces, creating a mix of crumbs and chunks. This mixture will serve as the base for your edible candles.
- Prepare Sweet Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of water. Mix until smooth, adding more water if necessary to achieve a thick, non-dripping consistency perfect for coating.
- Form Balls: Take the crushed cookie mixture and form it into small balls about the size of a golf ball.
- Coat the Balls: Dip each cookie ball carefully into the powdered sugar mixture, ensuring they are fully coated with sweetness.
- Add Almond ‘Wicks’: Press a raw almond into the top of each coated cookie ball to mimic a candle wick.
- Insert Wafer Rolls: Insert a wafer roll into the side of each ball to serve as the candle’s flame.
- Optional Decoration: Dust with extra powdered sugar for a snowy, festive effect, adding to the holiday ambiance.
Notes
- Ensure the coating mixture is thick enough to stick but not too watery, or the balls will lose shape.
- Use fresh almonds and wafer rolls for the best texture and appearance.
- Store these edible candles in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to 3 days.
- Perfect for holiday parties or as a charming edible gift.
