Ingredients
Mint flavored Oreos – 24 cookies
Semisweet chocolate disks – 16 ounces
Peppermint extract – 1/4 teaspoon
Green sprinkles – 2 tablespoons
Instructions
Place the semisweet chocolate disks in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue heating in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely smooth and glossy.
Add the peppermint extract to the melted chocolate and stir well to combine.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Using a fork, submerge one Oreo cookie at a time into the chocolate. Lift the cookie with the fork and gently tap the handle against the side of the bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off.
Slide the chocolate-coated Oreo onto the prepared parchment paper.
Once all cookies are dipped, pour the remaining melted chocolate into a small piping bag or a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off.
Drizzle the chocolate in a zigzag pattern over the cookies and immediately top with green sprinkles.
Let the cookies sit at room temperature for about 30-60 minutes, or in the refrigerator for 15 minutes, until the chocolate has fully set.
Notes
• Use high-quality chocolate disks or couverture chocolate for the best snap and shine.
• If the chocolate is too thick, add a teaspoon of coconut oil to thin it out.
• Ensure the Oreos are at room temperature to prevent the chocolate from seizing or setting too quickly.
• Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
