Tips for Best Results
- Use high-quality candy melts – They melt smoothly and give a glossy finish.
- Temper your chocolate – Helps prevent cracking or streaking when cooled.
- Chill cookies properly – Refrigerate after assembling to set chocolate completely.
- Work quickly – Melted chocolate can harden fast, so have cookies ready.
- Use a dab of chocolate for decorations – Helps flowers or candies stick securely.
- Avoid moisture – Make sure cookies are completely dry before dipping to prevent chocolate from seizing.
Ingredients & Substitutions
- Green Wilton Candy Melts – Can substitute with white candy melts and a few drops of green food coloring.
- Golden Oreo Cookies – Can use regular Oreos or gluten-free Oreos if needed.
- Wilton Royal Icing Decorations, Mini Flower Rainbow – Any small edible decorations or sprinkles will work.
- Wilton Cookie Icing, White – Can substitute with store-bought white frosting or homemade royal icing.
Equipment Needed
- Chocolate cookie mould or silicone chocolate mould
- Microwave-safe bowl or double boiler
