Chocolate Covered Oreos
Description
The recipe melts candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl with brief intervals and stirring to avoid burning. Each Oreo is dipped using a fork for easy handling, then gently tapped on the bowl edge to remove excess coating and prevent pooling chocolate at the base. Once dipped, the cookies are set on parchment paper and topped with sprinkles before the coating fully hardens, adding a decorative appearance and slight crunch.
Chocolate Covered Oreos serve well as festive treats or party snacks and can be stored in airtight containers for up to two weeks, maintaining freshness and coating texture. The choice of candy melt colors can be varied to suit themes or preferences.
For best results, using high-quality melting wafers ensures smooth coverage and taste. Attention to tapping excess chocolate off prevents a thick base that may affect the look and feel.
Ingredients
- 1 package Oreo cookies any flavor variety
- 16 ounces Candy Melts white, dark or a combination
- 1 cup Sprinkles
Instructions
- Place the candy melts in microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments until melted, stirring occasionally.
- Use a fork to dip each Oreo in the chocolate. Gently tap the fork against the side of the bowl to remove any excess chocolate from the Oreos.
- Place the Oreos on a sheet of parchment paper. Add sprinkles to the top of each Oreo, then let the cookies sit until completely dry.
- Serve, or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- Use high-quality candy melts, such as Ghirardelli, for smooth coating and improved flavor.
- Tap excess chocolate off the dipped Oreos to avoid a thick "foot" of chocolate on the bottom.
- Apply sprinkles immediately after dipping before the chocolate sets.
- Store coated Oreos in an airtight container for up to two weeks to maintain freshness.
