Ingredients
- Oreos
- Peanut butter
- Chocolate chips
- Crushed peanuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and completely melted. Use a double boiler method if you prefer more controlled melting.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, warm the peanut butter for 15-20 seconds to make it more fluid and easier to work with.
- Take each Oreo cookie and first dip it completely into the melted peanut butter, ensuring full coverage. Use a fork to help lift and drain excess peanut butter.
- Place the peanut butter-coated Oreos on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 5-7 minutes to allow the peanut butter layer to set.
- After setting, dip each peanut butter-coated Oreo into the melted chocolate, again ensuring complete coverage. Use a fork to help drain excess chocolate.
- Optional: While chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed peanuts on top for added texture and flavor.
- Return the double-dipped Oreos to the baking sheet and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until chocolate is fully hardened.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Allow to sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving for optimal texture.
