Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces light green candy melts
- 12.2 ounces red velvet Oreos
- 24 red heart sprinkles
- 1 tablespoon dark green sanding sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside and reserve ½ cup of light green candy melts for drizzling.
- Melt the remaining candy melts in a double boiler over low heat, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth, or use a microwave in 30-second intervals.
- Dip one Red Velvet Oreo into the melted chocolate using a fork. Lift it out and gently tap to remove excess coating.
- Place the dipped cookie on the prepared tray, and continue with the remaining Oreos.
- Put the reserved ½ cup of candy melts in a microwave-safe piping bag. Melt on low power, massaging every 60 seconds.
- Cut a small tip off the piping bag and drizzle the melted candy over the dipped Oreos in a zig-zag pattern.
- Top each cookie with a red heart sprinkle and optional green sanding sugar immediately.
- Let the chocolate set completely at room temperature or in the fridge before serving.
Notes
For a fun variation, try using different colored candy melts.
Ensure the coating is smooth for an even finish on the cookies.
Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
