Ingredients

  • 12 pieces Oreo cookies
  • 1.5 cups Dark chocolate chips
  • 0.5 cups White chocolate chips
  • 0.25 cups Orange candy melts
  • 24 pieces Mini candy eyes
  • 12 pieces Mini pretzels
  • 2 teaspoons Coconut oil (optional, for thinning chocolate)

Directions

Step 1

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. If needed, stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to thin the chocolate.

Step 3

Dip each Oreo cookie into the melted dark chocolate using a fork to coat completely. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing the cookie onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat for all the Oreos.

Step 4

Melt the white chocolate chips in another microwave-safe bowl in the same manner as the dark chocolate. Stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil if needed.

Step 5

Spoon a small amount of melted white chocolate onto one-third of each dipped Oreo to create the penguin’s white belly. Use the back of a small spoon to spread gently.

Step 6

Melt the orange candy melts in a small microwave-safe bowl until smooth. Transfer the melted orange candy to a piping bag or a small plastic bag with the corner snipped off.

Step 7

Pipe two small triangles near the bottom of each Oreo to form the penguin’s feet. Pipe a small orange triangle above the white belly to create the penguin’s beak.

Step 8

Press two mini candy eyes above the beak while the dark chocolate is still slightly soft.

Step 9

Break the mini pretzels in half to form wing shapes. Attach a pretzel piece to each side of the Oreo by gently pressing it into the chocolate.

Step 10

Place the decorated Oreos in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to set completely.

Step 11

Serve the Cookie Candy Penguins at room temperature and enjoy their cute and delicious charm!
