Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cool whip of choice (traditional or coconut)
- 1 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 cup dark chocolate
- sprinkles of choice
Instructions
- Prep the Cool Whip by letting it thaw until it's soft but not liquid.
- Melt the semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-30 second intervals until smooth. Consider adding a teaspoon of coconut oil for better texture.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted semi-sweet chocolate with the softened Cool Whip. Gently fold until fully incorporated, resulting in a smooth mixture.
- Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Pour and evenly smooth the chocolate-Cool Whip mixture into the dish.
- Freeze the mixture for at least 1-2 hours until firm but not rock hard.
- Remove from the freezer, lift the mixture using parchment paper, and slice it into 16 equal pieces.
- Melt dark chocolate chips, adding coconut oil if necessary. Dip or spoon them over each Cool Whip bar for even coating.
- Optional: While the chocolate coating is still soft, sprinkle toppings to personalize your bars.
- Return the coated bars to the freezer until the chocolate is set. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
For a fun twist, try using flavored Cool Whip.
Ensure the chocolate is fully melted for a smooth coating.
