Description

Delight in these Boston Cream Pie Cookie Bites, a no-bake treat combining creamy vanilla pudding filling sandwiched between crisp Nilla Wafers and topped with a rich chocolate ganache. Perfect for a crowd-pleasing dessert or party snack, these bite-sized sweets capture the essence of the classic Boston Cream Pie in an easy-to-make, handheld form.

Ingredients

Scale

Vanilla Pudding Filling

  • 1 (3.4 oz) box vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (divided)
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar

Chocolate Ganache Topping

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream (from the divided cup above)

Assembly

  • 70 Nilla Wafers (divided)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vanilla Pudding: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and lump-free. Set the mixture aside to thicken for 5 minutes.
  2. Whip Cream: While pudding thickens, combine ½ cup of heavy whipping cream with the powdered sugar. Whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, then gently fold the whipped cream into the thickened pudding mixture for a light and creamy filling.
  3. Chill Pudding Filling: Transfer the pudding mixture into a piping bag or a Ziploc bag with one corner snipped off. Refrigerate to keep it firm and ready for assembly.
  4. Make Chocolate Ganache: Place the chocolate chips and remaining ½ cup heavy whipping cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 45 seconds until the cream is hot but not boiling.
  5. Mix Ganache: Stir the heated cream and chocolate chips with a rubber spatula until smooth and glossy. Transfer this mixture into another piping or Ziploc bag for easy topping.
  6. Prepare Nilla Wafers: Arrange half of the Nilla Wafers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat, with their flat sides facing up.
  7. Assemble Cookie Bites: Cut a small opening at the end of the pudding bag and pipe a dollop of vanilla pudding onto each arranged wafer. Gently press another wafer on top to create a sandwich.
  8. Add Ganache Topping: Cut an opening in the ganache bag and pipe a dollop of chocolate ganache on top of each cookie sandwich. Use a spoon if necessary to smooth the tops evenly.
  9. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the cookie bites until set, or enjoy them immediately for a softer ganache texture. Serve chilled for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For firmer ganache, chill the bites for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Be gentle when sandwiching wafers to avoid breaking the cookies.
  • Use a piping bag for neat application or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off as an easy alternative.
  • These cookie bites are best enjoyed within 24 hours for optimal freshness.
  • Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
