Ingredients
- Cookies: 12 Oreo cookies (or any chocolate sandwich cookies)
- Coating & Decorations: 225 g (8 oz) white chocolate or white candy melts, 24 mini chocolate chips (for eyes), 12 orange sprinkle or mini orange candies (for noses), 36 mini chocolate chips or black sprinkles (for mouths), 12 red or green candy-coated chocolates (for earmuffs), 6 licorice strings or fruit leather strips (for scarves), 12 paper lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Step 1:
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

- While the coating is still wet, decorate: Place 2 mini chocolate chips as eyes. Add an orange candy for the nose. Arrange 3 mini chocolate chips or sprinkles in a curve to form the mouth. Add candy-coated chocolates to each side of the head for earmuffs, connecting with a small loop of licorice or fruit leather. Tie a strip of licorice or fruit leather around the stick as a scarf.
- Step 6:
