How to make Patriotic Chocolate Covered Oreos

Prep

Begin by lining a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper and then set it aside.

Chocolate

Next in a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate wafers and shortening in the microwave for 1:30 minutes. Let the bowl sit in the microwave for an additional 2 minutes, then remove and stir gently.

Return the chocolate back to the microwave and heat for 30 second increments, letting the chocolate sit after heating and stirring in between sessions. Repeat until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.

Dip

Proceed to dip each Oreo cookie into the melted chocolate, using a fork (or a Wilton dipping tool!) to fully coat the cookie. Tap off any excess chocolate and place the dipped Oreo onto the prepared baking sheet.

Now add some red, white, & blue sprinkles to the top of the chocolate-dipped Oreo while the chocolate is still wet. If desired, melt another 2 TBSP of red or blue chocolate wafers in a small baggie, snip the corner and drizzle onto the white chocolate dipped cookies.

Once all of the Oreos are dipped and decorated, let the cookies cool on the countertop until the chocolate has set. Serve & enjoy!

Storage and Preservation of Chocolate Covered Oreos

Once the chocolate-covered Oreos are done, it is important to store them properly to maintain their quality. Store the chocolate-covered Oreos in an airtight container at room temperature. They will last up to 1 week if stored properly. Keep the container away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the chocolate from melting.

If you need to store the treats for an extended period, consider freezing them. Place the cookies in a freezer-safe container or bag and store them for up to two months. When ready to eat, thaw the cookies at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

Pour a small amount of chocolate into each mold cavity and use a brush to spread the chocolate up the sides of the mold. Place an Oreo cookie in each cavity and cover with more melted chocolate. Tap the mold gently to remove any air bubbles and place it in the refrigerator until the chocolate is set. Once set, remove the chocolate covered Oreos from the mold and enjoy!

Is it possible to create chocolate covered Oreos on a stick?

Yes, it is possible to create chocolate covered Oreos on a stick. Simply insert a lollipop stick into the cream filling of the Oreo cookie before dipping it in melted chocolate.
