- Oreo Cookies - I used one package of cookies.
- Almond bark or melting candies
- Red, green and white holiday nonpareils
- Crushed Peppermint Candies
Melting Chocolate Tip - It's best to melt chocolate low and slow. I always use the microwave and start in 30 second intervals. It's also best to stir often to make sure part of the chocolate isn't overheating.
Step-by-Step Directions
Step 1 | Melt the Chocolate
- Place the almond bark in microwave-safe bowls. Then place the bowls in the microwave and begin melting the chocolate in 30 second intervals making sure you stir the chocolate after every 30 seconds to make sure the chocolate heats evenly.
- Next dip each Oreo cookie in the melted chocolates, making sure you flip the cookies to get them completely covered with melted chocolate.
Step 2 | Dipping Chocolate Trick
- Use a fork to dip the cookies into the melted chocolate.
- And when you're ready to remove the cookies, gently tap the fork on the edge of the glass bowl to remove the excess melted chocolate.
Step 3 | Decorate the Cookies
- Place the cookies on a parchment lined baking sheet. Immediately add the sprinkles or crushed peppermint candies.
- If you wait too long, the sprinkles will not stick. You can either let the cookies harden at room temperature or place in the refrigerator.
Step 4 | How to Drizzle Chocolate
- Use a melted chocolate drizzle tool to get finish decorating the chocolate covered Oreo cookies.
Step 5 | Allow Cookies to Dry
- And here's what the Oreo Christmas Cookies look like once the chocolate has dried.
- Trust me when I tell you, they taste delicious!
- Not at all like an Oreo cookie; which really surprised me.

Frequently Asked Recipe Questions
Store the Oreo Christmas Cookies in an air-tight container at room temperature for about 2 weeks. You don't need to refrigerate them unless it's the middle of summer and it's warm in your kitchen. You should not freeze them as the cold temperature from the freezer can change the way the chocolate looks when you defrost them.
I always use the microwave method to melt chocolate for dipping. But you can also use a double boiler to melt the chocolate.
