Polar Bear Oreo Cookies
Oreo cookies have a special place in my heart.
Not only do they taste amazing, but they are inanely easy to decorate. All you need is a little melted chocolate, and a steady hand, to give you endless options.
This week we decided to create our very own:
It seemed fitting that we would go with an arctic animal. Temperatures here in Utah are in the 30’s. That might as well be below freezing to this California native.
I am freezing.
Which is where the inspiration came from for these little guys.
They are SUPER simple to make. You do need to prep your ingredients and have a little patience.
A steady hand goes a loooooong way in getting these to look adorable. Bonus? They do not need to look perfect. Any imperfection adds character.
How to make character Oreo cookies:
- Dip the back of a mini vanilla wafer cookie in melted chocolate. Secure to the bottom half of your Oreo cookie. Let dry.
- Dip the entire cookie in melted chocolate. Tap off excess and place on wax paper.
- Working quickly, add mini marshmallow ears and M&M nose.
- Let dry completely.
- Once dry, carefully dip the marshmallow ears in melted chocolate to cover.
- Use an edible marker or black frosting to draw eyes.
