Sprinkley Christmas Cookies - Real Recipes from Mums

A really quick and easy Christmassy idea … for those times when you suddenly realise the kids need to take a plate to school and you don’t have much in the cupboard! Switch out the Christmas sprinkles for other colours during the year – perfect for the birthday plate that goes to school!

Ingredients (makes 16 biscuits)

16 Digestive Biscuits (or similar)
250g Melted Cooking Chocolate (Dark, Milk or White)
3 Different coloured Sprinkles

Method

Spread the biscuits onto a platter or tray.
Break the chocolate into squares and place in a heat proof bowl. Either melt in the microwave or over a pot of boiling water.
Spread 1 - 2 teaspoons of melted chocolate onto each biscuit and then cover with sprinkles before the chocolate sets.

A very easy recipe indeed with no baking. However baking together including messing together, is such a fun activity during the holiday season that I wouldn’t want to miss it. But indeed a really easy & quick idea for those times when you suddenly realise the kids need to take a plate to school and you don’t have much in the cupboard!

I am so going to make these up for this Christmas when we will have quite a crowd and a couple of new people attending that have not before. Hopefully they are sweet tooths so they fit right in to this crazy family

You could also use Nutella spread instead of melted chocolate. A super quick and easy treat

Such a fabulous Christmas biscuit hack with reliable and tasty Digestive biscuits. I do love the taste of Digestive biscuits and I have a feeling I am going to be pretty happy with these festive biscuits.
