How to Make Oreo Frog Cookies
You’ll need oreo cookies, mini pretzels, white chocolate chips, a few drops of green food coloring and a kid to help you. In a chocolate warmer or double boiler, combine chocolate and coconut oil together. Melt them together, stirring often.
Once the chocolate is melted, add a few drops of green food coloring and a dash of peppermint extract, if desired.
Next, dip the pretzels and place them down in the following position:
Dip the oreo cookie and place it on top of the pretzel feet:
The eyes were made using leftover easter egg Wilton candies and edible markers.
Alternatively, you can purchase candy eyeballs too.
Add a few green sprinkles and some small round green candies for “warts” and a piece of red gummy candy for a tongue and you have an instant Adorable (yummy) Froggie!
MYO Oreo Froggie Cookies
You’ll Need:
1/2 pkg Oreo-type Cookies
1 bag White chocolate chips
1 Tbs Coconut Oil (or solid shortening, such as Crisco)
1/2 tsp Peppermint Extract (optional)
6 drops Green Food Coloring
Green Sugar Crystals
Red candies (such as gummy fish)
Mini Pretzels
- In a double boiler, combine chocolate and coconut oil together. Melt them together, stirring often, until the mixture is smooth.
- Add 6 drops of green food coloring and peppermint extract, if desired.
- In pairs, dip the pretzels and place them down on parchment paper.
- Immediately dip the cookie and place it on top of the pretzel feet.
- Finish decorating the frog by adding candy eyes, a few green sprinkles and some small round green candies for “warts”. Finally, finish it off with a piece of red gummy candy for the tongue.
These take about half an hour to set, but you can “rush it” by placing them in the freezer for about 5 minutes. The use of the coconut oil is to thin the chocolate lightly to make the pieces coat evenly.
