Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- Oreos (classic chocolate sandwich cookies) – 24 cookies
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips – 1 cup
- White chocolate chips – 1 cup
- Halloween sprinkles (orange, black, and purple) – ½ cup
- Vegetable oil (optional) – 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper to place your dipped Oreos on. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy.
- Melt the Chocolate: Using a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, gently melt the semi-sweet or white chocolate chips, stirring frequently until smooth. Add a teaspoon of vegetable oil if desired for a glossy finish.
- Dip the Oreos: Hold an Oreo by the edges and slowly dip it into the melted chocolate until evenly coated. Shake off excess chocolate gently to avoid pooling.
- Decorate Immediately: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle Halloween-themed decorations—such as colorful sprinkles, edible glitter, or crushed candies—over the cookies for a festive look.
- Set to Harden: Place the decorated Oreos on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate is fully set and firm to the touch.
Notes
- Ensure Oreos are at room temperature to avoid chocolate seizing from condensation.
- Dip just enough chocolate for a smooth coating without overwhelming the cookie’s crunch.
- Use toothpicks for dipping edges or adding delicate decorations.
- Add toppings immediately after dipping to ensure they stick before chocolate dries.
- Store dipped Oreos in the fridge to maintain crispness and chocolate integrity.
