Dipped Oreos

Several years ago, I made these treats as a gift one Christmas and ate entirely too many of them. Surfing through the archives more recently, I came across them and was struck by just how simple and potentially kid-friendly this recipe is. So I blew the dust off this recipe and brought it to the kitchen table to try with the kids. The results were delicious, with a side of chocolate everywhere. These are great for a small tasty class gift at Christmas or another occasion (just change up your sprinkles!) 

What You Need:

• Family package of Oreos
• 13 blocks of baking chocolate (white or chocolate)
• Sprinkles, Candy Canes
• Coffee Stir Sticks
• Lollipop bags & twist ties
• Parchment Paper

How To Make Dipped Oreos:

Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Crack your Oreo in half. Dip your stick and place in the middle of the Oreo. Put Oreo halves back together. Let Dry (by the time you get to the last Oreo, the first one will be dry enough to dip).

Prepare chocolate. We shaved each block with a sharp chef’s knife into a glass bowl and microwaved 6 squares for approx 3 x 30 seconds. After each 30 seconds was up, we used a spatula to stir the melting chocolate.

Scrape the chocolate into 1/2 of the bowl for the best dipping potential. Dip side one, flip, dip side two, let chocolate drip off and cover bottom of cookie near stick by rotating it while you dip. Practice makes perfect!

Place dipped cookies on prepared wax papered cookie sheets. Don’t worry if they don’t look perfect! Decorate. Our favourites: Ziplock filled with other colour of chocolate for drizzling, sprinkles, or crushed candy cane!

Let Dry. Put in bags and twist on twist ties.
