The days are turning cold, and the nights are turning colder. We have had the fireplace roaring, and we’ve already started watching Christmas movies on the Hallmark Channel. It’s a get inside, and get cozy time of year. I think these cute Chocolate Covered Oreo Cookie Snowmen Treats fit right in with our cozy theme. They are perfect for a winter fun snack, the Hot Chocolate Bar at your holiday party, or paired with a chocolaty cup of hot cocoa. Come on in, and I’ll show you how to make these simple and fun snacks:
These are so much fun to decorate. The kids can even join in to decorate their very own snowman treat.
Here’s what you’ll need to make your own Snowmen Treats:
(This makes about 1 dozen)
- 1 dozen Oreo Cookies
- 8 (oz.) of white chocolate melts
- Pull and peel licorice
- Orange sprinkles
- Black Sugar Pearl Sprinkles – you can also use mini chocolate chips
- Soft round peppermint like candies for ear muffs (24)
- Or – just soft round candies of any kind 🙂
Equipment Needed:
- Glass bowl
- fork
- wax paper
 
- In a small glass bowl, melt the chocolate melts using the instructions on the back of the package
- Spread out some wax paper, and gather all of your supplies
- Drop an Oreo cookie into the melted chocolate, and flip it over, with your fork, to coat it
- Using your fork, pick your cookie up
- While your fork is resting on the side of the bowl, tap off the excess chocolate into the bowl
- While the cookie is still on your fork, transfer it to the wax paper and decorate immediately (before the chocolate has time to dry too much)
- *If you find that your chocolate is too thick, mix in about 1/2 teaspoon of shortening into the chocolate – It will thin it out for you
- Decorate the face with the sugar pearls/and/or chocolate chips, and the orange sprinkle
- Pull the licorice apart into strands of 2 and cute them in half
- Make the licorice into the headband for ear muffs, and place it on the side of the cookie with the soft candies on both ends
- Repeat for each cookie
- *If the chocolate starts too harden and is difficult to work with, then pop it back into the microwave for 30 seconds
