Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 12 Oreos
- 1 cup candy melts in different colors
- Sprinkles, gel coloring, candy eyes, or other decorations as desired
Instructions
- Melt Candy Melts: Melt the candy melts according to package directions, preferably in paper dixie bowls for easy clean up and to prevent burning in the microwave.
- Fill Molds with Candy: Pour about 1 tablespoon of melted candy melts into the bottom of each cavity of your mold.
- Place Oreos: Top the candy layer with one Oreo in each mold cavity.
- Cover Oreos: Pour additional melted candy melts over the Oreos to cover them completely.
- Chill: Place the molds in the refrigerator and chill until the candy melts are set, about 1 hour.
- Remove from Molds: Once set, carefully remove the candy-coated Oreos from the molds.
- Decorate: Melt additional candy melts in desired colors and use them to decorate. For jack o’ lantern faces, use dark chocolate or black candy melts in a piping bag with a small tip to draw eyes and mouth, or use a black food writer pen.
- Add Sprinkles: For sprinkle decorations, drizzle melted candy melts over the tops and add sprinkles. Chill again until hardened.
Notes
- Chocolate candy melts like Ghirardelli melt and spread better and taste superior.
- If candy melts are too thick, add about 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil and stir to thin.
- Using paper dixie bowls makes for easy clean-up and prevents burning in the microwave.
- Refer to tutorials on candy decoration for better results when melting and decorating.
