Ingredients
- 12 Oreo cookies
- 24 edible eyes
- 12 white candy melts
- 12 orange M&Ms
- 12 oz dark chocolate chips
- 2 oz package sour patch straws
- 6 Oreo minis
- 24 mini marshmallows
Instructions
- First things first, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will be where your adorable penguins get their start!
- Grab a microwave-safe bowl and toss in those dark chocolate chips. Heat them in 15-second intervals, stirring in between until they’re nice and melted. This is where the magic begins!
- Using a fork, gently dip an Oreo into the melted chocolate, flipping it to coat both sides. Once it’s fully covered, move it to your prepared parchment paper. Repeat this step for the remaining Oreos. Your kitchen will start to smell divine!
- While the chocolate is still melted, take a white chocolate melt and place it on the bottom half of the Oreo. This will be your penguin's cute little white tummy!
- Next, gently press two edible eyes into the chocolate for your penguin’s adorable gaze.
- Chop an orange M&M in half and place it underneath the eyes to make the beak. How cute is that?
- Now for the fun part! Press two mini marshmallows into the sides of the Oreo to give your penguin some fluffy cheeks.
- To make the earmuffs, heat the sour straws in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften them. Cut them into 1-inch pieces and stick them on top of the Oreo, between the marshmallows. It’s starting to look like a penguin party!
- Pull apart the Oreo Minis and separate both layers. Dip each side in the melted chocolate.
- Then stick them onto the front of the Oreo to create little wings. Your penguin is really coming to life!
- Place your creation in the freezer for 15 minutes to let everything harden. Once they’re nice and set, it’s time to enjoy your adorable Winter Penguin Oreos!
