Description

These Grinch Oreos feature a delightful blend of red velvet Oreos dipped in smooth light green candy melts, making them visually appealing and tasty. Perfect for celebrations, they are quick to prepare and sure to please everyone!


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. Alternatively, use the microwave in 30-second intervals.
  • Use a fork to dip each Red Velvet Oreo into the melted chocolate, then gently tap the fork against the bowl to remove any excess coating.
  • Place the dipped cookies on the prepared tray and repeat with the rest of the Oreos.
  • Put the reserved ½ cup of candy melts into a microwave-safe piping bag and melt on low power, massaging the bag every 60 seconds.
  • Snip a small piece off the tip of the piping bag and drizzle the melted chocolate over the dipped Oreos in a zig-zag pattern.
  • Quickly sprinkle each cookie with a red heart sprinkle and optional green sanding sugar.
  • Allow the chocolate coating to set completely at room temperature or in the fridge before serving.

Notes

Make sure to tap off excess coating to avoid pooling chocolate underneath the cookies.
You can use different colored candy melts for a fun twist!
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
