never mind, i didn’t read the recipe all the way through. I see that the crust is cooked first. Thanks

Do you cook the pie crust first?

In reply to Ivy. Hi Ivy! I used one-16 oz package of CandiQuik. Just substitute equal amounts of candy melting wafers for best results. Enjoy! :)

Hi! I’m going to substitute the CandiQuik for white chocolate wafers and need to know what size the package is that you use, thanks!

In reply to Alix. Hi Alix! Vanilla CandiQuik is a chocolate candy coating that's meant for higher temperature-melting. You can find it in the baking aisle of most grocery stores. Since it melts at a higher temp, it's less prone to seizing and coats things very easily and evenly. Plus, it tastes better than candy melting wafers. However, you could always use white chocolate chips (melted) in a pinch.

Priscilla, you’re right – they are a little on the richer side 🙂 but they would be excellent with coconut! I must try that suggestion next time!

These are wonderful, but a bit too rich to qualify as a “cookie”. As a homemade candy bar treat they are fabulous!
Might also be good with some coconut.

Hi, love the recipe and can’t wait to try, but what is vanilla candiquick and where do you find it?

Thanks
