🔪 How to Make Easter Chick Oreos
Making these little treats is just as easy as you might think with the short ingredient list above. It only takes a few simple steps.
Step 1: Make the Yellow Chocolate
Melt 3 squares of bark in a microwave-safe dish at 15-second intervals until melted. Then, stir in yellow food coloring until you get a bright yellow color.
Step 2: Dip the Oreos
Dip an Oreo in the bowl of chocolate, using a fork to flip it to coat all sides. Then, lift the Oreo out of the chocolate and let the excess drip off. Place the covered Oreo on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Immediately add 2 eyes. Repeat with the remaining Oreos. Leave the Oreos along for about an hour to set.
Step 3: Make the Orange Chocolate
Melt another square of bark in the microwave as you did in step 1. Then, stir in a few drops of orange food coloring until you reach your desired shade.
Step 4: Make the Beak and Feet
Place a drop of food coloring under the eyes, and use a toothpick to make it a triangle shape. Then, add a drop of chocolate to the left and right bottom of the Oreos, just off-center. Place 2 orange Jimmies in the chocolate to make feet. Let harden for 30 minutes and enjoy!
