Meringues are described as “an item of sweet food made by baking a mixture of stiffly beaten egg whites and sugar until crisp.” However, this time we won’t be using egg whites! Use an airtight container for storage.

Ingredients
- 16 ounces peanut butter sandwich cookies (such as Nutter Butter®)
- ½ (16 ounce) jar peanut butter (such as Jif®)
- ½ (24 ounce) package chocolate candy melts
- ¼ cup multicolored candy sprinkles
Instructions
- Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Crush peanut butter cookies in a food processor until they are crumbs. Pour into the bowl of a stand mixer and add peanut butter. Mix on medium speed until a dough forms, about 5 minutes.
- Scoop dough and form 20 balls, placing them onto the prepared baking sheet. Freeze for 30 minutes so they will hold together while dipping.
- Melt chocolate candy in a microwave-safe bowl in a microwave, stirring frequently, in 30-second increments.
- Insert a toothpick into each cookie ball and dip into melted chocolate. Return balls to the prepared baking sheet and top with sprinkles.
- Melt chocolate according to individual package instructions.
