You’ll be walking on air with these crispy, buttery, creamy, chocolaty bite-size Chocolate Vanilla Clouds.
The base is my favorite cookie, a thin Brussels cookie sandwiched with dark chocolate. I debated whether to accent the sweet with peanut butter or caramel. Either would be great, but I chose peanut butter Easter weekend as my tribute to the oversized Reese’s peanut butter egg.
The cloud is a combination of fresh whipped cream, sour cream a hint of sugar and vanilla pudding. You can use any flavor pudding you would like. Chocolate fudge pudding would make this even more decadent.
Finally, I dipped the beauties in melted chocolate. The chocolate dip was an inspiration from a recipe I saw on the Pinterest board BEST Food Blogger Recipes. If you’re not following our board yet, I recommend you stop on by ~ 38 bloggers, including myself, have shared nearly 1,000 recipes to more than 2,200 followers. This recipe will be added soon.
