Description
These Grinch Oreos are a delightful treat featuring red velvet Oreos coated in light green candy melts. Simple to make and perfect for any celebration, they’re topped with heart sprinkles for an extra festive flair.
Ingredients
- light green candy melts – 10 ounces
- red velvet oreos – 12.2 ounces
- red heart sprinkles – 24 pieces
- dark green sanding sugar – 1 tablespoon (optional)
Instructions
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Reserve ½ cup of light green candy melt pieces for the final drizzle.
- Melt the remaining candy melts in a double boiler over low heat, stirring every 30 seconds until fully melted and smooth, or use the microwave in 30-second intervals.
- Dip one Red Velvet Oreo cookie into the melted chocolate using a fork. Lift it out and gently tap the fork against the edge of the bowl to remove excess coating.
- Place the dipped cookie on the prepared tray and repeat with the remaining Oreos.
- Put the reserved ½ cup of candy melts into a microwave-safe piping bag. Melt on low power, massaging the bag every 60 seconds.
- Snip a small piece of the tip off the piping bag and drizzle the chocolate over the dipped Oreos in a zig-zag pattern.
- Immediately top each cookie with a red heart sprinkle and optional green sanding sugar.
- Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature or in the fridge before serving.
Notes
Ensure the candy melts are smoothly melted for an even coating on the Oreos.
You can adjust the amount of green sanding sugar based on your decoration preference.
