Ingredients
  

Chocolate and toppings
  • 24 Oreo cookies Classic sandwich cookies, room temperature for best dipping.
  • 16 oz white melting chocolate Melting wafers or candy melts suitable for melting/dipping.
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil Optional for thinning the coating so it dips smoothly.
  • 0.25 cup red sprinkles For immediate sprinkle coverage after dipping.
  • 0.25 cup blue sprinkles For immediate sprinkle coverage after dipping.
  • 2 tbsp patriotic star sprinkles Use as accent stars after the first sprinkle layer.
  • 0.25 cup red candy melts Melted for thin drizzle over the dipped cookies.
  • 0.25 cup blue candy melts Melted for thin drizzle over the dipped cookies.

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Prep the tray
  1. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.
Melt and thin the white coating
  1. Melt the white melting chocolate according to package directions, heating until smooth and fully pourable.
  2. Stir in coconut oil if needed to loosen the melted chocolate for smoother dipping.
Dip and sprinkle
  1. Dip each Oreo completely into the melted chocolate, covering the cookie and edges evenly.
  2. Tap each Oreo gently against the bowl edge to remove excess coating.
  3. Place the dipped Oreo onto the prepared sheet pan, leaving space between cookies so they don’t touch while setting.
  4. Immediately decorate with red sprinkles, blue sprinkles, and patriotic star sprinkles so the toppings adhere to the wet coating.
Drizzle and set
  1. Drizzle some Oreos with melted red candy melts in thin lines while the white coating is still slightly tacky.
  2. Drizzle the remaining Oreos with melted blue candy melts in thin lines.
  3. Allow the chocolate coating to set completely at room temperature until firm to the touch, about 30 minutes, then serve.
  4. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Notes

Pro tip: If your melted chocolate looks thick or pools, add the coconut oil a little at a time to keep the dip glossy and even. Store covered in the fridge up to 3 days (bring to room temperature for best texture); freezing is not recommended. For a dairy-free swap, use a dairy-free white melting chocolate alternative and keep the same topping amounts.
