Suitable for vegetarian diets. Post includes Weight Watchers points. I looooove any opportunity to have my kiddoes in the kitchen with me, and these Valentine Oreos are so much fun to make together. After I help them melt the chocolate, they get to dip and decorate to their heart’s desire. Fun like these easy Easter Chocolate Dipped Oreos. And since these chocolate-dipped Oreos are so simple and inexpensive, they also make a fabulous edible gift. Take my advice and buy more Oreos than you will need for your gifts because more than one cookie will wind up in someone’s belly instead of the gift box!

Pro Tips
Melt the chocolate slowly. This will prevent the chocolate from burning or breaking. Melt in 30-second increments, whisking until smooth.Add the decorations to the cookies before the chocolate coating sets. For easy dipping and serving, stick a popsicle or lollipop stick into the cookie filling before coating in chocolate to create super fun Oreo Pops!Fill a small bowl with sprinkles and dip half of the cookie into the sprinkles to decorate.

Giving As an Edible Gift
It’s nice to show friends, teachers, and others that you appreciate them, and edible gifts are always popular. I love giving chocolate covered Oreos as gifts because they are easy to make, inexpensive, and delicious! They really are a fun and colorful present to give to all the special people in your life. Just place several cookies in a cellophane bag, in a small tin or box, and add a little gift tag. These can be made in advance or even on short notice!
Make Ahead and Storage
Make Ahead – Make these Chocolate Covered Oreos up to 3 weeks in advance!Store – Store the cookies in an airtight container on the counter. They will keep up to three weeks–if they last that long!Freeze – You can freeze these cookies if you plan to eat them straight out of the freezer. They make a refreshing treat in the summer. However, the chocolate may get wet with condensation when thawing, so we don’t recommend freezing these if you plan to give them as a gift.
FAQs
Can I Use Other Types of Chocolate?
Yes! We love mixing it up. White chocolate chips are delicious, but you could use any flavor chocolate, almond bark, or melting chocolate.
I Have Leftover Chocolate. What Can I Do With It?
Mix a little bit of red food coloring into any leftover chocolate to make a pink or red hue. Use a fork to drizzle it all over the cookies.
