Main Ingredients
- 1 package (36 count) Oreos
- 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
- Assorted Halloween sprinkles such as candy eyes and colored sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the Workstation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside to place the dipped Oreos for chilling and decorating.
- Melt Candy Melts: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt one color of candy melts (start with any desired color) in 30-second increments, stirring between each until smooth. Use one color at a time for dipping.
- Dip Oreos: Using a chocolate dipping fork, dip each Oreo into the melted candy melts, flipping to coat both sides evenly. Lift the Oreo and tap the fork on the bowl edge to remove excess coating. Place the coated Oreo on the prepared baking sheet.
- Decorate and Chill: While the coating is still wet, decorate with Halloween sprinkles like candy eyes, sprinkles, or other themed decorations. For mummy designs, dip Oreos in white candy melts, add candy eyes, chill to set, then drizzle additional melted white candy melts on top and chill again for a layered effect.
- Repeat for Other Colors: Repeat the dipping, decorating, and chilling process for the remaining Oreos using different candy melt colors to create a variety of spooky designs.
- Set and Serve: Once all Oreos are dipped and decorated, chill them in the refrigerator until the coating is fully set before serving or packaging.
Notes
- Use a chocolate dipping fork or a fork with small spacing to easily dip the Oreos without breaking them.
- Work with one color of candy melts at a time to prevent mixing colors and to keep the melts smooth.
- Chill Oreos between decorating steps to help candy melts set quickly and maintain design integrity.
- Substitute candy melts with colored white chocolate melts if preferred.
- Store the finished chocolate covered Oreos in an airtight container in a cool place or refrigerate for up to one week.
- If candy melts thicken while working, remelt them in 10-second bursts to maintain the right consistency.
