Ingredient Notes
White Melting Wafers: Ghirardelli white melts work great for a smooth finish and easy melting. Candy melts will also work, but the texture may be slightly thicker.
Blue Food Coloring: Make sure it’s oil-based so it blends smoothly into the chocolate without seizing. Start with a little and build up to your preferred shade of blue.
Cookie Dough Oreos: These give the center a fun flavor twist without using actual raw cookie dough. If you can’t find them, Golden Oreos work just as well.
Dark Melting Wafers: Used for drizzling and attaching toppings. A small amount goes a long way for the decorative finish.
Mini Chips Ahoy: These add a playful, crunchy topping that really sells the cookie-lover theme. Regular mini chocolate chip cookies also work if needed.
Oreo Mold: A standard Oreo mold helps give these their classic oversized shape, but any round chocolate mold with enough depth will work too.
Quick Prep Notes
Do I need oil-based food coloring for the chocolate?
Yes. Water-based food coloring can cause the chocolate to seize and turn grainy. Oil-based coloring blends smoothly into melting wafers and keeps the texture glossy.
Should the molded Oreos be cold or room temperature before drizzling?
Let them sit out for a few minutes after unmolding. If they’re too cold, the drizzle will set too fast and won’t spread smoothly.
Can I skip the Oreo mold?
You can use another round chocolate mold, but the Oreo mold gives the classic oversized cookie look and helps the layers stay even.
Cookie Dough Crunch Oreos
Ingredients
- 1 plastic standard Oreo mold from Spinning Leaf
- 1 bag Ghirardelli white melting wafers
- Oil-based blue food coloring– A mix of baby blue and royal blue
- 1 package Cookie Dough Oreos (or Golden Oreos if needed)
- 1 bag Ghirardelli dark melting wafers
- Mini Chips Ahoy cookies
- Piping bottle
Instructions
- Place the Oreo mold on a flat, sturdy surface.
- Melt the white melting wafers according to the package directions. Stir in blue food coloring until you reach a Cookie Monster-blue.
- Fill each mold cavity halfway with the blue chocolate. Press a Cookie Dough Oreo into the center of each one, then cover with more melted chocolate until full. Gently tap the mold to release air bubbles.
- Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until fully set.
- Carefully remove the Oreos from the mold and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes so the drizzle doesn’t harden too fast.
- Crush 1–2 extra Oreos into small pieces.
- Melt about ¼ of the bag of dark melting wafers and transfer to a piping bottle.
- Drizzle three of the Oreos with dark chocolate and sprinkle crushed Oreos on top, lightly pressing them in.
- For the remaining three, attach a mini Chips Ahoy cookie to the top using melted chocolate.
- Let everything set, then serve and enjoy the cookie chaos.
