How to Make Santa Oreos
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step by Step Guide
1. Line a large baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. This will be the perfect spot to let your Santa Oreos dry and harden after their chocolate bath.
2. In 4 small bowls, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave. Use 15-second intervals, stirring in between each round to prevent any scorching. Once your chocolate is silky smooth, you’re ready to add the color magic!
3. In one bowl, add red food coloring to create Santa’s suit.
4. In another, add brown food coloring (or use melted milk chocolate) for the belt.
5. In a third bowl, add a few drops of yellow food coloring for the belt buckle.
6. Leave the fourth bowl of melted white chocolate plain – this will be for Santa’s buttons and detailing.
7. Now for the fun part! Grab a fork, dip each Oreo into the red-colored chocolate, making sure the entire cookie is covered. Gently tap the fork on the side of the bowl to let any excess chocolate drip off. Place the Oreos onto your prepared baking sheet and let them sit at room temperature or in the fridge until the coating sets.
8. Once the red coating is dry, fill three piping bags with your yellow, brown, and white chocolates.
9. First, use the brown chocolate to pipe on Santa’s belt across the middle of the Oreo.
10. Next, add a tiny square buckle in the center of the belt with the yellow chocolate.
11. Finally, use the white chocolate to create Santa’s buttons – two or three little dots down the front.
12. After decorating, pop your Santa Oreos in the fridge until they’re fully set. Once they’re nice and firm, they’re ready to be enjoyed!
And there you have it! These Santa Oreos are not only adorable but also super fun to make. Kids will love helping out with the dipping and decorating, and they make for a great edible gift or party favor!
