Ingredients Needed:
- 1 (15.35 ounce) package Oreo Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
- 2 (12 ounce) packages blue candy melts wafers
- 2 (12 ounce) packages red candy melts wafers
- Red, White and Blue Confetti Candy Stars
Instructions:
Step 1: Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
Step 2: Melt candy coating according to package directions. If the candy is too thick to pour, add 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening. Stir well. Do not add water. You can add up to 1 tablespoon of coconut oil per bag of candy wafers.
Step 3: Dip each cookie into melted candy. Remove cookie, tapping gently against the side of the bowl, allowing excess candy to return to the bowl. If air bubbles form, pop them with a toothpick. Place the cookie onto the waxed paper. Allow to set completely before proceeding to the next step. To speed the process, cookies can be refrigerated or placed in the freezer in a single layer.
Step 4: Transfer melted candy coating to a piping bag or a zip top freezer bag with the corner snipped. Create solid lines of an alternating color across the cookie in stripes.
Step 5: Sprinkle the candy stars on top of the cookie before the stripes dry.
Step 6: Allow cookie to set completely at room temperature or refrigerate for faster results. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
ENJOY!
