# List of Ingredients:
→ Cookies
01 -
14.3 oz bag (36 cookies) of regular Oreo cookies
→ Candy Coating
02 -
1 1/2 cups (9 oz) white candy melts
→ Decorations
03 -
72 M&Ms or Smarties
04 -
36 unicorn horn sprinkles
05 -
Pull and peel or shoelace licorice, enough for 36 earmuffs
06 -
3 to 4 tablespoons black cookie icing
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Line a baking sheet or cooling rack with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
02 -
Place white candy melts into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50% power for 1 minute, stir, then continue microwaving in 30-second intervals at 50% power, stirring after each until fully melted and smooth, approximately 3 to 5 minutes total.
03 -
Using a fork or candy dipper, dip each Oreo into the melted candy until fully covered. Allow excess coating to drip off.
04 -
Place coated Oreos on the parchment-lined surface. Quickly press two M&Ms on opposite sides of each cookie to form earmuffs. Lay a piece of licorice candy across the top to join the M&Ms. Add a unicorn horn sprinkle at the center front as a carrot nose.
05 -
Let the coated Oreos sit undisturbed for approximately 10 minutes until the candy coating is firm.
06 -
Using black cookie icing, draw two eyes and a smiling mouth on each Oreo. Allow the icing to set for at least 5 minutes before serving.
# Additional Suggestions:
01 -
Microwave times may vary; melt candy slowly to avoid burning.
02 -
Work quickly when decorating before candy coating hardens.
