Chocolate Dipped Mint Oreo Cookies Recipe

Here is a recipe that is so simple and perfect for parties or any occasion when you want a little treat.

I did these in  a mint version which is perfect for St Patrick’s Day but you can use any flavor or colors – the process is the same!

And let me tell you, if you haven’t tried chocolate dipped Oreos- they are amazing!

Our local Peet’s Coffee Shop sells them for $1.00 each or maybe $2.00 and occasionally we get them as a little treat.  So delicious!

So here is an easy way to make these at home yourself for a fraction of the price:

Traditionally chocolate dipped oreos are fully immersed in chocolate.  I find sometimes that is just a little too much and also I find it much harder to dip the entire Oreo.  This can be a messy process and to get nice smooth chocolate on the fully dipped cookie can be a little tricky.

So just coating it halfway still provides the yum factor and makes this so much faster and easier.

You might make a little batch of these and tuck them into the kid’s lunchboxes for the week!

    Hey, Charlene; just curious what the small sandwich bag is for? I don’t see it mentioned in the instructions, and for some reason I’m curious!

    LOL! I was scheduling posts nonstop yesterday and I have no idea why I listed that ;). You can use the baggie to catch the sprinkles when you sprinkle the cookies. I can probably remove it from the ingredient list though 😛
