Description
OREO Witches’ Hats are a no-bake Halloween treat made by dipping OREO cookies in black candy coating, topping them with strawberries, and decorating with icing and sprinkles to create festive mini witch hats. They’re easy, fun, and perfect for spooky parties or kid-friendly projects.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces black candy coating wafers (about 1⅓ cups), melted
- 8 OREO cookies (original variety)
- 8 small strawberries, washed, dried, and tops sliced flat
- 2 teaspoons green decorating icing
- 1 teaspoon orange-colored sprinkles (about 32 pieces)
Instructions
- Melt black candy coating wafers in a microwave-safe bowl on HIGH for 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Microwave in 15-second intervals if needed.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Dip each OREO cookie into the melted candy coating to coat both sides evenly. Let excess drip off, then place on parchment paper.
- Slice the top off each strawberry so it sits flat. Pat them dry thoroughly.
- Dip the flat side of each strawberry into the melted candy coating and place it on top of each coated OREO to form a hat shape. Let set for 5 minutes.
- Use green decorating icing to pipe a line around the base of each strawberry, where it meets the OREO.
- While icing is still wet, press about four orange sprinkles into each line of icing to create a buckle effect.
- Let hats stand at room temperature until fully set before serving.
Notes
- Use dark chocolate or colored candy melts as an alternative to black coating.
- Mini OREOs and raspberries can create bite-sized versions.
- Ensure strawberries are fully dry to help coating stick properly.
- Decorate with edible glitter or use alternative icing colors for variety.
- Best served the same day to maintain texture of the strawberries and coating.
