How to Make Chocolate Covered Christmas Light Oreos
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step by Step Guide
1. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. This will prevent your cookies from sticking and make cleanup a breeze!
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white baking chips in 20-second intervals. Be sure to stir in between to avoid burning, and continue until the chocolate is smooth and creamy.
3. Using a fork, place an Oreo into the melted white chocolate. Move it around to make sure the cookie is fully coated, then flip it to cover the other side. Lift the cookie out of the bowl using the fork and let the excess chocolate drip off for a second. Place the cookie onto your prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of your Oreos.
4. Let the cookies cool for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the white chocolate has hardened. (Pro tip: If you’re in a rush, pop the cookies in the fridge to speed up the process!)
5. Next, melt the dark chocolate chips the same way you did with the white chips—20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
6. Using a piping bag, ziplock bag with the corner snipped off, or even a spoon, drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the cookies in thin lines. These lines will act as the “string” for your Christmas lights.
7. Before the dark chocolate hardens, gently press mini M&Ms onto the lines. For a classic Christmas look, use just the red and green M&Ms. Feeling extra festive? Use all the colors for a multicolored light display!
