chocolate dipped Mexican sugfar wafer cookies

Crunchy wafer cookies filled with delicious cream come in various colors. Sweet, crunchy, and addicting my Abuelita always had these sweet babies on-hand when we visited her in Brownsville, Texas.

My favorite are the chocolate ones, but my mami loves the pink ones. Once when enjoying them with her afternoon coffee she told me they were the shade of amor.  This little sentiment always stuck with me.

Today Iโ€™m adding this childhood favorite cookie, the Mexican wafer to one of the easiest edible gifts โ€“ chocolate dipped Mexican sugar wafer cookies just in time for Christmas!

My Chocolate dipped Mexican sugar wafer Cookies are probably one of the easiest treats you can make and still call homemadeโ€ฆ.cause you knowโ€ฆyou made them at your casita.. ahaha

I used vanilla wafers, pero you can use the wafer you love for this easy holiday recipe. I topped them with red sprinkles for a touch of Christmas red.
