Dazzling Gold Glitter Dipped Peanut Butter Oreos Recipe
- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Yield: 11 1x
Description
Glittering gold dips elevate classic peanut butter Oreos into a luxurious treat. Chocolate, peanut butter, and edible gold glitter create an elegant dessert perfect for special celebrations.
Ingredients
- 24 Oreo cookies
- 1 cup (250 g / 8.8 oz) creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups (350 g / 12.3 oz) white or dark chocolate chips (or candy melts)
- 1 tbsp (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for smoother melting)
- Edible gold glitter or luster dust
Instructions
- Cookie Deconstruction: Gently twist Oreo cookies apart, preserving the cream on one side with precision.
- Peanut Butter Fusion: Spread a luxurious layer of peanut butter across the cream surface, creating a rich and creamy interior.
- Cookie Reconstruction: Reunite the cookie halves, pressing delicately to form a seamless peanut butter-infused sandwich, ensuring uniform thickness and complete coverage.
- Chocolate Coating Preparation: Melt chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth and glossy, maintaining a consistent temperature to prevent burning.
- Dipping Technique: Hold each peanut butter Oreo by its edge, carefully submerge in melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, creating an even, elegant chocolate shell.
- Glitter Embellishment: While chocolate is still wet, delicately sprinkle gold edible glitter over the surface, rotating to achieve complete and balanced coverage.
- Setting and Cooling: Place decorated Oreos on a parchment-lined tray, transferring to the refrigerator to allow chocolate to solidify and glitter to adhere, approximately 10-15 minutes.
Notes
- Twist Gently: Use a delicate twisting motion when separating Oreo cookies to prevent breaking the cream or cookie wafer.
- Spread Evenly: Apply peanut butter smoothly and consistently across the cream surface for balanced flavor in every bite.
- Check Cookie Alignment: Press cookie halves together carefully to create a tight seal and prevent peanut butter from leaking.
- Temperature Matters: Let peanut butter soften slightly at room temperature for easier spreading and smoother application.
