Ingredients
Scale
Oreos
- 1 package (36) Oreos
Candy Melts and Chocolate
- 6 oz white candy melts or white chocolate
- 6 oz orange candy melts
- 6 oz chocolate chips or black candy melts
- 6 oz green candy melts
Decorations
- Assorted Halloween sprinkles like candy eyes and sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside for drying the dipped Oreos.
- Melt Candy Melts: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt one color of candy melts or chocolate at a time by microwaving in 30-second increments, stirring between intervals until smooth.
- Dip Oreos: Using a chocolate dipping fork, dip each Oreo into the melted candy melts, flipping to coat both sides completely. Lift and tap the fork on the bowl edge to remove excess coating.
- Decorate: Place the coated Oreo on the lined baking sheet. Add spooky decorations like candy eyes or sprinkles while the coating is still wet.
- Make Mummy Oreo: For the mummy design, dip Oreo in white candy melts, decorate with candy eyes, chill until firm, then drizzle with extra melted white candy melts to create a bandage effect. Chill again to set.
- Repeat Process: Continue dipping, decorating, and chilling until all Oreos are coated and decorated.
- Chill Until Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes or until the candy melts harden completely before serving.
Notes
- Use a chocolate dipping fork or a fork with thin tines for easy dipping and removing excess coating.
- Melting candy melts slowly in short bursts prevents burning and ensures smooth texture.
- Decorate quickly after dipping before the coating hardens to ensure sprinkles stick well.
- Chill Oreos in the refrigerator to speed up the hardening process of the candy melts.
- Substitute colored candy melts with colored white chocolate if preferred.
- Store decorated Oreos in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
