I’ve made these chocolate-covered Oreos for countless celebrations, and they’re guaranteed to bring smiles to all who enjoy them. Grab your ingredients, unleash your creativity, and let’s make my favorite chocolate-covered goodness!
Are Chocolate-Covered Oreos Healthy?
It’s no surprise that chocolate-covered Oreos are not the healthiest dessert out there. It’s important to remember to enjoy them as an indulgent treat rather than a staple in your diet. With a high amount of carbs, sugar, and saturated fat, they’re certainly rich and decadent. But they do provide a smile with every bite, and I say that is also important for a balanced diet. It’s perfectly okay to indulge every now and then!
What Else Can I Dip In Chocolate?
If you love the idea of chocolate-covered Oreos, you’ll be excited to know that the possibilities for chocolate-dipped delights are nearly endless! Try dipping fresh strawberries for a classic combination that’s both elegant and delicious. Or, give pretzel rods a sweet and salty twist! Marshmallows also make a fantastic treat when dipped in ooey, gooey chocolate. You could also snag some packaged Rice Krispies Treats for a nostalgic treat to transport you back to your childhood. Get creative and let your imagination run wild—there’s no wrong way to enjoy chocolate!
How to make ahead and store
Chocolate-covered Oreos can be stored in an airtight container on the counter or in the fridge for 1 to 2 weeks. To prevent the chocolate from melting, keep them away from sunny spots in your home.
Serving Suggestions
Chocolate-covered Oreos are perfect just on their own. But if you’re looking for extra creativity, I got you! Chocolate-covered Oreos would make a great cake topper, whether on a birthday cake or a homemade cheesecake. You could also serve your cookies with a side of ice cream! Or maybe even a milkshake if you’re feeling fancy.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Vegetable oil as needed
- 24 Oreo cookies
- Sprinkles for decorating optional
- Melted white chocolate for decorating optional
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. If chocolate is thick, add 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil at a time to thin it out.
- Using a fork or skewer, dip each Oreo cookie into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s completely coated.
- Tap the fork gently to remove excess chocolate and place the cookie on the prepared baking sheet.
- Optionally, put sprinkles on the dipped Oreos before the chocolate hardens, or use a spoon to drizzle melted white chocolate lines over them.
- Allow the chocolate-covered Oreos to set at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes.
