mini time!

It's Monday! It's mini time!
Next in the 7 days of spring break treats are the chocolate 
 covered mini oreos I made for Christian's teachers.
SEEEE! Bottled up in some adorable mini jars from Target.
Perfect for MINIs :D

 

 Well, we love Oreos too! You can just pop these in your mouth. Endlessly. So be careful. Or like your mom said, you could turn into a mini chocolate covered Oreo.

I don't care. As long as I AM mini.

 

If this isn't the cutest way to Oreo...then what is life. JK really I don't think they can get any cuter than this. Well the minis. I do have some cute Oreos coming up this week. BUT LOOK at these minis. So cute. The chicks. Chicks are cute no matter what form. And the bright colored pastels remind me of mini Easter eggs. I am so sure if you have kids or grandkids, you have mini Oreos in your house. Have fun with them this spring break! Ready! Let's make some! 

 

They are so easy this is gonna be a breeze! You may not stop til the bag is gone. AHA. Here's some cute sprinkles for your mini Easter egg pastel Oreos. Of course mini Oreos and TOOTHPICKS. Toothpicks are life in this treat making hobby.

If you wanna get crazy and do the whole bag, go for it. I'll just do a few at a time. K. So seperate the Oreos. I think some people think you have to shove the stick, or in this case the toothpick, into the space between the cookies. No. Just take them off. It's a lot easier. Dip your toothpick into the melted candy melts you are using and press into the cream of the Oreo. Try to lay it the length of the Oreo so that it is even when you place the top cookie back on.

 

And that's what you do next. Right after putting your toothpick on, put the top cookie on to secure it with the melted chocolate. 

 

Let them dry a few minutes then dip into your melted candy melts.Tap off the excess and smooth the bottom with a toothpick. You don't want a pointy hole left when you take the toothpick out.

 

If you are sprinkling these, do it right after you dipped and tapped. If you may be drizzling them with another color, place in stand to dry.

 

I am using some styrofoam to hold these Oreos. The skinny little points of the toothpick are more stable in something like this. This is actually a cake dummy. HAHA. Place here to dry until the final step.

 

Here I am making the baby chic Oreos. Doing the same steps for the sprinkled Oreos. Take them apart, dip your toothpick in your melted candy and press into the cream of the Oreo.

 

Top with the other cookie while the candy melts are still wet.

 

Time to dip and tap of the excess melted candy. Before your candy dries place the little beak on using the rainbow chips. Place the beak closer to the top.

 

Then right after the beak cover with yellow sanding sugar for that fuzzy chick look. AWW.

 

With some melted black candy melts, place two little black eyeballs on your baby chick. Like this. It looks crazy but I like it better this way when I take the toothpick out. LOL.

 

Continue to make as many minis as you want!

Place them in your foam to dry before the final step.. below.

 

To remove, carefully grip your mini Oreo and twist the toothpick, and then start to pull and twist. See. Comes right out.

 

Same for the baby chicks. Be careful with them! They are too cute to crush. So again, carefully grip your mini Oreo, twist and pull the toothpick out. TADA!

 

AaAaAaAaH! Once all the toothpicks are out, display your littles in some edible grass and dig in! HeAvEnLyyyy. They are ready for spring break snacking! YuM.
