Ingredients
Scale
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup frozen whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Dust the bottom lightly with powdered sugar.
In a medium bowl, gently fold the thawed whipped topping and the powdered sugar together until just combined. Do not overmix, or the topping will deflate.
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Place the pan in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to cut.
Once firm, lift the candy out using the parchment paper overhang. Cut the block into small, bite-sized squares.
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Dip each candy square halfway or completely into the melted chocolate. Place the dipped candies back onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Return the baking sheet to the refrigerator or freezer until the chocolate coating sets completely. Store the finished Cool Whip Candy in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
Notes
For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips for dipping.
If you want a slightly different texture, you can substitute 1 cup of powdered sugar with 1 cup of crushed graham crackers for a crust-like base before freezing.
This recipe is excellent for making ahead of time for Christmas candy trays.
