Due to the use of store-bought chocolate wafers, these cookies have an elegant appearance that will trick any partygoer. Peppermint crushed adds more holiday flare. A baking trick to make the cookies shine more is to mix coconut oil with the chocolate.
Chocolate-Cherry Dips

The maraschino cherries in these chocolate no-bake cookies are a tasty surprise. Spread the rich cream cheese mixture between two vanilla wafers after blending the rosy-red fruit. Before the chocolate coating solidifies, enlist the help of the little ones to decorate.
