Description
Easy Oreo Heart Bites are adorable no-bake Valentine treats made with Oreo cookies dipped in white and colored chocolate, then decorated with festive sprinkles. These sweet heart-shaped bites come together quickly with just a few ingredients, making them perfect for parties, gifts, or last-minute desserts.
Ingredients
Cookies
- 20 Oreo cookies (regular or Golden)
Chocolate Coating
- 1½ cups white chocolate chips or candy melts
- ½ cup pink or red candy melts (optional)
- 1 tsp coconut oil or shortening (optional)
Decoration
- Valentine’s sprinkles or sanding sugar
Instructions
- Prepare Work Surface: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Insert Toothpicks: Carefully insert a toothpick into the cream center of each Oreo cookie to aid in dipping and handling during coating.
- Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips or candy melts in the microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each interval until smooth. Add coconut oil or shortening if desired for a smoother consistency.
- Dip Oreos: Dip each Oreo cookie into the melted white chocolate, fully coating it. Gently tap off any excess chocolate to avoid drips.
- Shape Hearts: Place the coated Oreos on the parchment-lined baking sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, shape the top into a heart shape using the tip of a toothpick for a festive look.
- Add Sprinkles: Sprinkle Valentine’s themed sprinkles or sanding sugar over the wet chocolate coating to decorate the bites.
- Drizzle Colored Chocolate: Melt the pink or red candy melts and drizzle them over the cookies for added color and decoration.
- Set Chocolate: Allow the dipped and decorated Oreos to sit undisturbed at room temperature for 20–30 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has completely set and hardened.
Notes
- Use candy melts instead of regular chocolate for smoother coating and vibrant color.
- Chill Oreos in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before dipping to make handling easier and to help the chocolate set faster.
- Store the finished Oreo heart bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
- These treats are great for Valentine’s Day boxes, party platters, or as sweet homemade gifts.
