Supplies You Will Need

• Cookie mould
• Chocolate or Candy Melts
• DoubleStuff Oreo Cookies
• Optional
  • + White Chocolate
  • + Oil Based Candy Colourant
  • + Coloured Candy Wafers
  • + Decorator Brush
  • + Silicone Spatula

Melt the Chocolate

Microwave Oven: Place coarsely chopped chocolate or candy wafers into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave at 50% power for 1 minute, then stir well. Continue to microwave for 15 to 30 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth.

Double Boiler: Place coarsely chopped chocolate or candy wafers in the double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Stir until smooth.

Please note: For best results, do not overheat the chocolate, and avoid introducing moisture. Both these conditions will ruin the chocolate.

Paint the Designs (optional)

Use your white chocolate as is, or color it using oil based candy colorants (do not use water based colorants), or use colored candy wafers.

Using a decorator brush, dab the white/colored chocolate into the mould designs. After filling each design, tap the mould onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Tip: If you are making many chocolate covered Oreos, you may want to substitute the decorator brush with a squeeze bottle, or cake decorator, to facilitate filling the mould designs.

Partially Fill the mould

Fill the chocolate into the mould cavities, approximately 1/3 full. Tap the mould onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Tip: If you've painted the designs, avoid remelting them by filling the cavities with chocolate that's as cool as possible, and tap the mould very gently as this can also cause the colors to bleed together

Embed the Oreo Cookies

Press the Oreo cookie into the chocolate, and center it in the mould cavity, horizontally and vertically.

As you press the Oreo into the mould cavity, the chocolate will rise up around the sides, embedding the cookie, and leaving only the top uncovered.

Top Off the mould

Pour the chocolate over the embedded Oreo, completely filling the mould, and covering the cookie.

Gently tap the mould onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Level the Chocolate

If necessary, level the chocolate by scraping away the excess with a silicone spatula.

Unmould Your Chocolate Covered Oreos

After the chocolate has hardened, chill the mould in the refrigerator for approximately 10 minutes. Turn the mould upside down and press on the back of the cavity to release the chocolate covered Oreos.
