Cute Penguin Oreos Treats (Ready-to-Print Version)

Chocolate coated Oreos transformed into charming penguins with candy details for festive fun.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Cookies

01 - 14.3 oz (405 g) regular Oreo cookies (36 pieces)

→ Chocolate Coating

02 - 1 1/2 cups (9 oz / 255 g) chocolate candy melts
03 - 36 white candy melts

→ Decorations

04 - 72 M&M’s or Smarties
05 - 72 candy eyeballs
06 - Pull and peel or shoelace licorice
07 - 72 orange confetti sprinkles

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Line a cookie sheet or cooling rack with parchment paper.
02 - Place chocolate candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50% power for 1 minute, stir, then continue heating in 30-second intervals at 50% power, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted, up to 5 minutes.
03 - Using a fork or candy dipper, fully coat each Oreo cookie in melted chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing on parchment paper.
04 - Press one white candy melt onto the lower half of each coated cookie to form the penguin's belly while the chocolate coating is still soft.
05 - Place two candy eyeballs near the top of each cookie, then position two orange confetti sprinkles just below the eyes to create the beak.
06 - Attach two M&M’s to the sides of each cookie and connect them across the top with a piece of licorice to resemble earmuffs.

# Handy Tips:

01 - Use gentle stirring to avoid incorporating air into the melted chocolate for a smooth finish.
