Christmas Oreos
These cute Christmas tree Oreos are a fun and festive way to brighten up your holiday cookie tray, and a great activity to do with your kids and grandkids!
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 12 Oreo sandwich cookies
- 4 oz. white chocolate or white candy melts
- 2 oz. green candy melts
- Rainbow nonpareils for ornaments
- Mini gold stars for the top of the tree
- Chocolate jimmies for the tree trunk, optional
Instructions
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the Oreos on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate or white candy melts according to the package directions until smooth.
- Working with one Oreo at a time, dip the bottom half of the Oreo into the white chocolate, then lay on the prepared baking sheet to harden (about 15 minutes).
- When the white chocolate is set, melt the green candy melts in a small microwave-safe bowl, according to the package directions until smooth.
- Add the melted green candy to a piping bag fitted with a size 1 or 2 piping tip.
- Using a zig-zag motion, pipe lines into the shape of an abstract tree, then add decorations. (Only do 1 or 2 Oreos at a time because the candy sets up quickly, you want to make sure your decorations will stick.)
- Allow cookies to set completely before serving or packaging. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Oreos freeze well, up to 2 months, but Oreos will lose a bit of their crunch.
