Sometimes the easiest desserts are the ones everyone raves about. These white chocolate–covered Oreos are smooth, creamy, and just a little too addictive. They look fancy enough for a holiday platter but take barely any effort—no baking, no fuss, just a quick dip and chill. You can dress them up with sprinkles or crushed peppermint, or keep them simple and glossy for that “I spent hours on these” illusion.
There’s something oddly satisfying about coating an Oreo in melted chocolate. The cookie softens just a little under the shell, and when you bite through that crisp white chocolate layer, it’s pure magic. They’re great for party favors, teacher gifts, or just a late-night treat you definitely didn’t plan to make but somehow did anyway.

Category: Desserts, Gifts, No-Bake Treats
Ingredients
- 24 Oreo cookies
- 12 ounces white chocolate or white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother melting)
- Sprinkles or crushed candies for decoration (optional)
Instructions
Prepare a tray:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the cookies don’t stick.
Melt the chocolate:
Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second bursts, stirring each time until smooth and glossy. If it feels too thick, stir in the coconut oil for a smoother texture.
Dip the cookies:
Drop one Oreo at a time into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to flip it and coat it completely, then lift it out and tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to let the extra chocolate drip off.
Decorate:
Set each coated cookie on the prepared tray. Add sprinkles, crushed peppermint, or whatever you like before the chocolate hardens.
Chill:
Refrigerate the tray for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
Serve or gift:
Once set, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll last up to a week—but good luck keeping them around that long.
There’s something about the combo of smooth white chocolate and that dark, crunchy cookie that makes these impossible to stop at one. They’re fast, pretty, and guaranteed to disappear faster than you made them. Perfect proof that simple desserts don’t need any extra hype—they just need chocolate.
