Ingredients
- 20 cookies Double Stuffed Oreos or other chocolate sandwich cookies
- 15 ounces Ghirardelli dark chocolate melting wafers
- ¾ cup black candy melts
- 40 pieces small round sprinkles can also use candy eyes
- 20 pieces M&M candies brown and red
Instructions
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
- Add black candy melts to a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for a minute at half power, then stir. Continue heating the black candy melts in thirty-second increments until it forms a smooth sauce.
- Fit a small piping bag fitted with a Wilton #3 tip and fill it with the warm black candy melts. If you don't have a piping bag, use a freezer zip-top plastic bag, fill the bag and when you are ready to make the antlers cut just the very corner off the bag to make thin details. Let the candy melts cool for 2-3 minutes before cutting the bag and beginning to draw so the chocolate doesn't flow too fast.
- On to the lined baking sheet, pipe small antlers with the black candy melts about 1 inch to 1 ¼ inches long. To make the antlers pipe two small letter ‘V’s in a row, then add a line down the center to connect them. Place the tray of antlers in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
- Add the dark chocolate melting wafers to a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for a minute at half power, then stir. Continue heating the dark chocolate in thirty-second increments until it forms a smooth dark chocolate sauce.
- With a fork dip each Oreo cookie one at a time into the melted dark chocolate. Tap the fork gently against the edge of the bowl to remove extra chocolate. Place the Oreo onto the prepared baking tray.
- Repeat with 2-3 more Oreos, then add the noses, eyes and antlers to each cookie. Work in batches until you have dipped and decorated all of the cookies.
- Place the tray of Oreos in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or until the chocolate sets completely. Then serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Using a fork allows you to press the fork into the cream of the cookie at a place where you won't need to touch the top or the bottom of the cookie. Use a butter knife to gently release the cookie from the fork after it is dipped in chocolate.
- If the face details are having trouble sticking to the chocolate it sometimes can be that the chocolate is too warm. Pop the Oreos in the refrigerator for a few minutes and then try again. Sometimes the chocolate is just too warm, or even the kitchen and the room can be too warm, especially if you are making other Christmas treats.
- Once the chocolate on the outside of the Oreo cookie is completely set, use a little additional melted chocolate and a toothpick to attach the candy eyes, nose and antlers to each cookie.
