Ingredients

  • 24 Oreos mint flavored
  • 16 ounces semisweet chocolate disks
  • 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • Sprinkles green, for decoration

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, stirring between 30 second increments. Stir in peppermint extract.
  2. Use a fork to dip the Oreos in the chocolate, scraping the excess chocolate off of the fork. Place the Oreos on parchment paper to harden.
  3. Use the rest of the chocolate in a piping bag, squeezing over the Oreos, then topping with sprinkles. Let the Oreos rest until fully hardened.

Notes

  • Use a fork to dip each Oreo and scrape off excess chocolate for a smooth coating.
  • Allow the chocolate to fully harden on the Oreos before handling or serving to maintain the coating.
  • Melt chocolate in short intervals, stirring between, to prevent burning.
  • Adding peppermint extract enhances the mint flavor beyond the cookie itself.
  • Decorate with sprinkles before chocolate hardens for best adherence and appearance.
  • Click on times in the instructions to start a kitchen timer and avoid overcooking chocolate.
