Prepare the Work Surface:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper to prevent the cookies from sticking. This also makes cleanup easier.
Melt the Chocolate:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white or dark chocolate melts. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. If you're using pink or red candy melts, simply follow the same process.
Dip the Oreos:
Take one Oreo cookie and dip it halfway into the melted chocolate. You can use a fork to hold the cookie and gently submerge it, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let the excess chocolate drip off.
Add Sprinkles or Decoration:
While the chocolate coating is still soft, immediately sprinkle the Valentine-themed sprinkles or edible glitter on top. You can also use red or pink icing to create fun designs or heart shapes for additional decoration.
Set the Cookies:
Place the decorated cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Allow them to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate has fully set. If you’re in a hurry, you can place them in the fridge for 10-15 minutes to speed up the process.
Serve and Enjoy:
Once the chocolate has hardened, your Valentine Oreo cookies are ready to enjoy! Serve them at a Valentine’s Day party, gift them to loved ones, or keep them for yourself as a sweet treat.
