Oreo Ornaments Christmas

If it were socially acceptable (or if my family would allow it) I would be putting up Christmas decorations the day after Halloween.

Christmas is my favorite holiday by far. I love the feeling in the air, I love shopping for presents, wrapping them, blasting Christmas music, baking Christmas cookies, and decorating my house like a mini winter wonderland. How can someone not enjoy glittery glass ornaments, the smell of a freshly-cut pine tree, or the twinkle of hundreds of rainbow lights adorning the house?!

Anyway.This year was particularly nerve-wracking because we didn’t set up our tree until yesterday. AKA, December 6th. That’s like, an abomination in my book. I would have ideally loved to set it up the day after Thanksgiving, but since I was out of town, I couldn’t. And when I returned, eager to unpack and decorate, I was informed the carpet cleaner was coming and thus there’d be no point to put it up in his way.

 

Oreo Ornaments Christmas

Prep Time15 mins
Total Time15 mins

Ingredients

•     16 oz white candy coating wafers
•     24 miniature peanut butter cups
•     Miniature M&M candies or other small candies
•     24 chocolate sandwich cookies like Oreos

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper. Place the candy coating in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating, until the coating is melted and smooth.
2. Using forks or candy dipping tools, dip a cookie in the melted coating until it's completely covered. Remove it from the coating and let the excess drip back into the bowl, then place it on the baking sheet.
3. While the coating is still wet, press a mini peanut butter cup onto the side of the cookie. Add mini M&Ms to the top in a decorative pattern.
4. Repeat, dipping the remaining cookies and decorating them with peanut butter cups and M&Ms. If the coating gets too thick while dipping, re-warm it briefly in the microwave until flulid again.
5. Refrigerate the tray to let the coating set completely, for about 10 minutes. Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
