Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• Make Ahead - These white chocolate-dipped Oreos can be made several days in advance and stored in an airtight container. 
• Customizable - Once you have the method down of covering the Oreos in the melted white chocolate using the Fancy Flours Oreo mold, you can easily swap out the toppings and decorations. Make these for Christmas but then mix up the toppings for other holidays like Easter or Fourth of July. 
• Easy Process - The only semi-cooking involved in making these chocolate-covered Oreos is melting the white chocolate wafers in the microwave and stirring until smooth. This is a fun activity that you can get the kids involved with. Let them help melt the wafer and then let them get creative with decorating!
• Gift Giving - Between the crushed peppermint and the joyful candy cane icing decorations, these cookies are begging to be displayed in pretty cellophane bags and gifted to your favorite people. They’re almost too pretty to eat, except who can resist Oreos?

Ingredients

• Oreos - This chocolate-dipped Oreo recipe is completely gluten-free when using the certified gluten-free Oreos. You can easily make the same recipe with regular Oreos. 
• Fancyflours Mini Candy Cane Icing Decorations - No need for any cake decorating skills. These cheerful candy canes simply press into the warm melted white chocolate and voila, done!
• Coconut Oil - Melting coconut oil into the white chocolate wafers makes the molten chocolate easier to dip and extra glossy and shiny. 
• OliveNation’s Crushed Peppermint Candy Topping – This peppermint adds minty flavor and texture to every bite. It’s perfect for topping off these white chocolate-covered Christmas Oreos but can be mixed into batters, sprinkled over cakes and cupcakes, and even added to ice cream. 
• OliveNation’s White Chocolate Melting Wafers - There’s no need to worry about tempering chocolate when you use OliveNation’s white chocolate coating wafers. They easily melt in the microwave and are sweet without being overpowering, allowing the flavor of the cookies to shine. You can use the code NK15 for 15% off of your Olive Nation order. 

Instructions

• Add three-quarters of the bag of white chocolate wafers to a microwave-safe bowl along with the coconut oil.
• Microwave in twenty-second increments, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
• Cut a very small snip in the top of the piping bag.
• Place the piping bag into a large glass and fold the top over the rim of the glass, making it easy to fill.
• Pour the melted chocolate into the piping bag. 
• Pipe the melted chocolate into each Oreo mold filling it halfway up.
• Nestle an Oreo into each mold.
• Top each Oreo with more white chocolate. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it over, completely enrobing the cookies.
• Place the mold into the freezer for fifteen minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden.
• Place the remaining white chocolate and a few drops of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl and heat to melt. 
• Pour the melted chocolate into a flat plate.
• Use a circular motion to dip one side of the Oreo into the melted chocolate.
• Top the cookies with the candy cane decoration, crushed peppermint, and sprinkles. Work quickly as the chocolate will harden.
• Once all of the cookies have been decorated, place them into the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes so they can be set. 

Variations

• Use any of your favorite varieties of Gluten Free Oreos for this recipe such as mint or double stuffed.
• Feel free to use non-gluten-free Oreos.
• For even more of a festive look add red or green food coloring to the melted white chocolate. Make sure to use an oil-based food coloring as water-based food coloring will separate when added to the hot chocolate.
• Swap out the Christmas decorations for your favorite holiday sprinkles.
• Feel free to dip these in melted dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate.

Storage

• For the best texture and to prevent the chocolate from becoming too soft keep these stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last for up to two weeks.
• These cookies freeze well. Keep them stored in freezer-safe bags with the air removed and they’ll last up to three months in the freezer. 

Equipment

• Fancy Flours Oreo Mold – This makes evenly and quickly coating the Oreos in the melted chocolate mess-free while allowing you to do six at a time easily. 
• Piping bag
• Measuring cups/spoons
• Flat plate
• Spoon

Top Tips

• Don’t overheat the melting chocolate wafers. This will cause the chocolate to break.
• If you decide to add food coloring to the white chocolate make sure that you use an oil-based color. Water-based food color separates when it is combined with hot chocolate.
• Don’t skip the step of freezing the cookies before you dip the tops and decorate them. This will allow the second layer to adhere and make them easy to handle.
