  • COOKIES:

    White chocolate yogurt coating, if available, makes these yummy cookies even better. I am able to purchase the yogurt coating at the local mennonite store. The yogurt coating also may be available at a local candy store, or candy making store. I have made them with both, and prefer white yogurt coating to regular white chocolate hands down.
