No Bake Peanut Butter Wafer Sandwiches & Peppermint Hot Cocoa. Whip up this really easy sweet treat for Santa this year! They are absolutely delicious and so fun!
We are less then one month away from Christmas, can you believe it? Confession, I have been playing Christmas music for a couple of weeks now and I am loving it! Now if you have little ones like me then you know who they have on mind this time of year…. Santa of course!!! My boys and I wanted to test out a new and fun treat for Santa this year so today I’m sharing our No Bake Peanut Butter Wafer Sandwiches & Peppermint Hot Cocoa. 
Now, since these special treats are our something new for Santa, I wanted to make something that was really fast and super easy so the kids could pretty much do most of it on their own. I ran out to Walmart and picked up everything I needed for our No Bake Peanut Butter Wafer Sandwiches & Peppermint Hot Cocoa. We grabbed a box of NILLA Wafers, a container of Peter Pan Peanut Butter Spread, a box of Swiss Miss® hot chocolate with marshmallows as well as peppermint extract, white chocolate chips, Christmas sprinkles and whipped cream. Now we had everything we needed!
To help you out be sure to grab your COUPON!
We got started as soon as we got home… there was of course plenty of taste testing to ensure that these would be the cookies we leave for Santa. The NILLA Wafers are dipped in melted chocolate and allowed to sit for the chocolate to set on the wafer. After that we added a good dollop of Peter Pan Peanut Butter Spread and sandwiched the wafers. Now thats not enough, no, we need something really festive… Christmas sprinkles of course!
Don’t forget, Santa is going to need something to go along with those No Bake Peanut Butter Wafer Sandwiches! We whipped up this incredibly delicious Peppermint Hot Cocoa and let me tell you, it is a winner! We used Swiss Miss® hot chocolate, milk, a little hint of peppermint extract, whipped cream and crushed up candy canes. Swiss Miss® is so rich and creamy and its made with REAL milk!
I have to say, while sweet treats are fun, for me this is ALL about spending time with my boys, making memories and hopefully creating traditions for us and eventually their own families. I really think its the little things that are impactful and stick around. Making the time to do things like bake, decorate for the holidays or go see a special holiday show…simply enjoy each other.
- 1 box NILLA Wafers {I used about 1/2 the box}
- 1 container Peter Pan Peanut Butter Spread
- 1 box Swiss Miss® hot chocolate
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 tsp peppermint extract per hot cocoa
- crushed candy canes
- whipped cream
- Christmas sprinkles
- In a microwave safe bowl melt the white chocolate in 10 second intervals, stirring each time until melted.
- Dip half of each NILLA Wafer into the white chocolate then place onto a lined baking sheet. Once they are all dipped place the baking sheet into the freezer for 5 minutes or so to allow the chocolate to harden.
- Add a dollop to half the wafers then place another wafer on top, creating a sandwich. Roll the edges in the sprinkles.
- For your Peppermint Hot Cocoa, follow the instructions on the box. Add in 1/4 tsp of peppermint extract per cup of hot chocolate. Top with whipped cream and crushed candy cane bits.
So tell me…. What are some of your holiday traditions?
