Fourth of July festivities can be really crazy especially when a lot of relatives are visiting all at the same time. So, to spare you a few hours of preparation, we are going to share this recipe that doesnā€™t need much time and effort. All you need is creativity and chocolate!

4th of July Chocolate Oreo Recipe

What you need:

  • Oreo Cookies
  • Blue candy melts
  • Red candy melts
  • Red, white, and blue sprinkles
  • Dark or White chocolate (can be optional)
  • Optional: Cookie molds, parchment paper or baking sheet, piping bags, coconut oil

What to do:

If you do not have dark or white chocolate and cookie molds

Melt the blue and red candy melts. Separate a portion to be used later for the design and toppings.

Place the candy melts in a bowl and microwave until completely melted. You may choose to melt the blue first and do the next step before doing the red one if you donā€™t have an extra pair of hands.

Next, dip the Oreo into the melted candy melts until it is fully covered. Then, place the fully covered Oreo into a parchment paper or baking sheet to set. Do this until half of the number of cookies are done then repeat the steps this time for the red ones.

When all the cookies are covered, carefully place them in the refrigerator to fully set. Once set, take them out to decorate using the reserved candy melts.

Drizzle the reserved candy melts on the cookies, and top with red, blue, and white sprinkles!

If you have dark or white chocolate and cookie molds

You may also use dark or white chocolate for the base mold. Melt the dark and white chocolates and dip the cookies into the melted chocolate until fully covered. If you have a cookie mold, then pour the melted dark and white chocolates into the mold and press the cookies gently into each mold until fully covered.

Place the mold in the refrigerator until fully hardened then pop the cookies out of the mold and place them into a parchment paper.

Since your base is either dark or white chocolate, use your red and blue candy melts to decorate! Melt them separately and place into piping bags. Pipe the frosting onto the cookies and decorate with any pattern you like! This can also be a great activity to do with the kids!

Lastly, allow everything to hardened! Store and serve! These cookies can last up to 5 days in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tip: Adding a little bit of coconut oil to the candy melts and dark or white chocolate helps melt the chocolates smoothly.

Another Tip: Try with other cookies that you love! How about star-shaped ones for this festivity?

Want to take it up a notch? Use popsicle sticks and voila ā€“ Oreo pops!

To do this, you will have to twist open the Oreos into halves, dip the end of the popsicle stick into any of your chocolate melt to serve as glue, and then sandwich it between the Oreo halves.

Allow the ā€œglueā€ to fully set before moving on to the next step. You may opt to freeze them to speed up the process. Then, proceed with dipping the cookies into the chocolate melts and so on.

What do you think? Pretty easy and cool, right? Iā€™m sure your family will love this fun chocolate Oreo recipe! And, whatā€™s perfect is you can always do this on different occasions and share with friends.
