How to Make Christmas Wreath Cookies
Step 1: Start by putting the pinwheel cookies in the freezer to harden up before decorating.
Step 2: Next, pull apart the Twizzlers so you have 12 individual strings. Tie each one into a small bow and set these aside.
Step 3: Melt the green wafers using the package directions. Do not overheat.
Step 4: Then, take the cookies out of the freezer. Doing so one at a time, hold a pinwheel upside down and dip it into the green chocolate to coat just the top of the cookie, then place it on a cooling rack.
Step 5: Before the chocolate hardens, place one bow on the top of the wreath and add Christmas-colored sprinkles to the rest of the cookie. Repeat this process for each cookie.
