Oreo Cookie Halloween Treats
Description
This recipe uses Oreo cookies coated with melted orange candy melts, creating a firm, vibrant shell that covers the cookies completely. The method involves dip-coating each Oreo and tapping off excess coating to achieve a smooth finish. After coating, a green candy is placed on top to mimic a pumpkin stem, enhancing the festive visual appeal.
The candy melts are gently heated and stirred carefully to avoid burning, and the treats are placed on wax paper to set. Additional yellow candy melts can be melted for detail decoration or other uses.
These treats are ideal for seasonal parties or Halloween-themed snacks, combining the classic Oreo flavor with decorative candy coating for a playful twist.
Ingredients
- 1 bag orange candy melts
- 15 Candy Melts yellow
- 12 Oreo sandwich cookies
- 12 M&M candies separated so you just have green M&Ms
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet or cutting board with wax paper.
- Place half a bag of candy melts into a microwave safe dish and heat on high for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. This step is critical, to stir, because the melts can quickly burn. You may find your microwave only requires 1:30 to melt the candy.
- Dip one oreo at a time into the orange candy, coating the back side and flipping the cookie over to coat the other side. I find a fork works best for this task.
- Lift the oreo cookie out of the candy melts and tap the excess, on the side of the bowl and place onto the prepared surface.
- Add a green candy at the top of the oreo for the stem. Repeat until you have the desired number of oreos.
- Let set to harden completely. I like to work with half a bag of candy melts at a time so they don't harden too quickly on me.
- Place 10 yellow candy melts into a sealable sandwich bag, but don't seal. Microwave on high for 10 seconds. Knead the candy until melted, returning it to the microwave in 5 second increments if necessary. Make sure you knead all the lumps out of it, making sure the candy is completely melted.
- Snip the tip of the bag so you have a small opening. Pipe a jack-o-lantern face onto the cookies and let set to dry completely.
