Chocolate Covered Oreo® Instructions

Supplies You Will Need

• Mini Mold
• Chocolate or Candy Wafers
• DoubleStuf Oreo® Cookies

Optional Items:
• White Chocolate
• Oil Based Candy Colorant
• Colored Candy Wafers
• Decorator Brush
• Silicone Spatula

Melt the Chocolate

In a Microwave Oven
Place coarsely chopped chocolate into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir well. Continue to microwave for 15 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth.

In a Double Boiler
Place coarsely chopped chocolate in the double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Stir until smooth.

Please note: For best results, do not overheat the chocolate, and avoid introducing moisture. Both these conditions will ruin the chocolate.

Paint the Designs (optional)

Use your melted white chocolate as is, or color it using oil based candy colorants (do not use water based colorants), or use colored candy wafers.

Using a decorator brush, dab the white/colored chocolate into the mold designs. After filling each design, tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Tip: If you are making many chocolate covered Oreos®, you may want to substitute the decorator brush with a squeeze bottle, or cake decorator, to facilitate filling the mold designs.

Partially Fill the mold

Pour the chocolate into the mold cavities, approximately 1/3 full.

Tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Embed the Oreo® Cookie

Press the Oreo® cookie into the chocolate, and center it in the mold cavity, horizontally and vertically.

As you press the Oreo® into the mold cavity, the chocolate will rise up around the sides, embedding the cookie, and leaving only the top uncovered.

Top Off the Mold

Pour the chocolate over the embedded Oreo®, completely filling the mold, and covering the cookie.

Tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air.

Level the Chocolate

If necessary, level the chocolate by scraping away the excess with a silicone spatula.

Unmold Your Chocolate Covered Oreos®

After the chocolate has hardened, place the mold in the freezer for approximately 5-10 minutes. Be careful not to freeze the chocolate.

Turn the mold upside down and press on the back of the cavity to release the chocolate covered Oreo® from the mold.
