Christmas Tree Oreos
Turning Oreos into little Christmas trees is such a fun way to celebrate the season. With just a handful of ingredients, you can make a treat that looks festive, tastes delicious, and comes together in minutes. As a bonus, there's no baking required - just melt, dip, drizzle, and decorate.
Ingredients
- 12 Oreo cookies
- 1 cup green candy melts
- ½ cup white candy melts
- 12 star sprinkles
- 1 teaspoon nonpareils sprinkles
Instructions
- Melt the white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- In another bowl, melt the green candy melts the same way until smooth and creamy.
- Dip the bottom half of each Oreo into the white candy melts. Tap gently to remove extra coating, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Transfer the green candy melts to a piping bag. Drizzle over the Oreos in a zigzag pattern to form the shape of Christmas trees.
- While the green drizzle is still soft, press a star sprinkle at the top of each cookie. Scatter nonpareils sprinkles to look like ornaments.
- Allow the decorated cookies to set at room temperature, or place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
- Once firm, remove from the tray and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
Work Quickly: Candy melts set fast, so decorate each cookie right after piping the green candy.
Line Your Tray: Always use parchment or wax paper to prevent sticking and to make cleanup easier.
Steady Hands Help: If you want cleaner zigzags, rest your elbow on the counter while piping for more control.
Make Ahead Friendly: These cookies can be prepared a few days in advance and still look fresh and festive.
