How to make Easter Bunny Oreos

Step 1 – Melt the Candy: Place candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and melt according to package instructions until smooth.

Step 2 – Prepare the Molds: Spoon one tablespoon of melted chocolate into each mold. Use a spoon to spread it up the sides.

Step 3 – Ensure Even Coating: Tap the mold on a surface to ensure chocolate covers all sides evenly. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to set.

Step 4 – Add Oreos: Place an Oreo in the center of each mold and cover with more melted chocolate. Tap again to remove air bubbles and ensure even coverage. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.

Step 5 – Create Bunny Ears: Cut marshmallows diagonally, dip the cut side in pink sprinkles, and attach them to the Oreos with a dab of melted chocolate to form ears.

Step 6 – Decorate Faces: Use melted chocolate to attach candy eyes and an M&M nose to each Oreo.

PRO Tips for a perfect chocolate covered Oreo

Ensure Even Chocolate Coating: For a smooth and even chocolate coating, use a silicone brush or the back of a spoon to spread the melted chocolate inside the mold before inserting the Oreo.

Temperature Control is Key: Ensure the chocolate is melted gently and kept at a consistent, warm temperature. Melt the chocolate in short bursts, stirring in between to prevent overheating. Overheated chocolate can become thick and difficult to work with, while too cool chocolate won’t coat the Oreos smoothly.

Chill to Set, But Not Too Long: While chilling the chocolate-covered Oreos in the refrigerator helps them set quickly, leaving them in the cold for too long can cause condensation to form on the chocolate once brought back to room temperature. Cool for just 15-20 minutes – and then remove them to prevent any moisture buildup, which can spoil the perfect finish.
