Oreo Valentines Pink Candy Wafers Delight
Cute, candy-coated pink Oreo treats perfect for Valentine’s Day gifting or parties.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 36 Oreo cookies
- 12 oz pink candy wafers
- 4 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp heart-shaped sprinkles
- 1 tbsp edible glitter optional
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper and set aside.
- Place the pink candy wafers in a medium microwave-safe bowl and add the vegetable oil.
- Microwave the wafers and oil on high in 20–30 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until completely melted and smooth.
- Stir the melted candy coating until it is evenly blended and slightly thickened but still pourable.
- Working one cookie at a time, place an Oreo on a fork and dip it into the melted pink candy, turning or spooning coating over the top to cover completely.
- Lift the Oreo, gently tap the fork against the side of the bowl to remove excess coating, and transfer the coated cookie to the prepared baking sheet.
- Immediately sprinkle the top of the coated Oreo with heart-shaped sprinkles and, if using, a light dusting of edible glitter.
- Repeat the dipping and decorating process with the remaining Oreos, reheating the candy coating in the microwave for 10–15 seconds if it thickens.
- Allow the decorated Oreos to stand at room temperature for 20–30 minutes, or until the pink candy coating is fully set and firm to the touch.
- Once set, transfer the Oreo Valentines Pink Candy Wafers Delight to an airtight container, separating layers with parchment paper, until ready to serve or gift.
Notes
- Use whole, unbroken Oreos so they hold together when dipping and look neat after coating.
- If the melted candy becomes too thick while you work, stir in an additional 1 tsp vegetable oil and rewarm briefly in the microwave.
- Store the finished treats in an airtight container at cool room temperature for up to 5–7 days.
- For gifting, place 2–3 coated Oreos in clear bags tied with ribbon for a simple Valentine’s Day present.
