Love Bug Oreos
Craft adorable Love Bug Oreos with a simple recipe using Fudge-Covered Oreos, red candy melts, and delightful decorations. Perfect for a charming Valentine's Day treat that's easy to make and impossible to resist.
Ingredients
- 1 packet fudge-covered Oreos 12-count
- 1 (10 ounce) bag of red candy melts
- 1/4 cup small heart-shaped sprinkles
- 3 tablespoons dark chocolate candy melts
- 24 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
- Melt the red candy melts according to the package directions.
- Dip the Oreos in the candy melts until 3/4 of the cookie is covered.
- Place the cookie on the prepared baking sheet. Immediately add the heart sprinkles to the red candy melts leaving a space in the middle to pipe on the wings. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
- Melt the dark chocolate candy melts according to the package direction and add them to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip.
- Pipe a line across the ladybug where the red candy melts and the Fudge of the cookie meet. Pipe a second line down the middle of the red part of the cookie to create the wings.
- Add a dab of the dark chocolate to two candy eyeballs and attach them to the fudge exposed cookie to finish the love bug. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
- Allow the candy melts to set completely before enjoying.
Notes
- Store your Love Bug Oreos in an airtight container at room temperature, in a cool and dry place for up to two weeks. Ensure they are in a single layer or separated by parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- I do not recommend freezing the cookies to avoid candy eyeball bleed.
