For these Oreo Halloween treats you will need different colored candy melts, some coconut oil or shortening, sprinkles, candy eyes, and a little black gel or black frosting.
How to make the Oreo Monsters:
- Melt purple candy melts with a little coconut oil, dip Oreos in and then set on parchment paper
- Before the candy melts harden gently press on sprinkles and the eye.
How to make the Oreo Mummies:
- Melt white candy melts with a little coconut oil (just like I do for my Halloween pretzel rods!, dip Oreos in and then set on parchment paper
- Before the candy melts harden gently press on eyes, then let harden.
- Using a spoon drizzle lines over the Oreo to create mummy wrappings. I like to add a few lines, let those set up, then add more lines, giving the appearance of multiple layers of bandages
How to make the Oreo Bats:
- Melt black candy melts with a little coconut oil, dip Oreos in and then set on parchment paper
- Before the candy melts harden gently press on eyes.
- Once the Oreos covered in candy melts have set up, cut a thin Oreo in half creating the wings.
- Carefully separate the dipped Oreo and place the wings inside. Fix the wings in place with a little of the melted candy melts on the back of the wings. Add a little more of the candy melt between the bottom and top piece of the Oreo (the pieces you separated to put the wings on), and press back together.
How to make the Frankenstein Oreos:
- Melt green candy melts with a little coconut oil, dip Oreos in and then set on parchment paper
- Before the candy melts harden gently press on eyes.
- As the candy melts are setting up use a toothpick to make a small indentation for the mouth.
- Once the candy melts have set up completely pipe on the hair and stitches.
How to make Oreo Jack-O-Lanterns:
- Melt orange candy melts with a little coconut oil, dip Oreos in and then set on parchment paper
- Dip Oreos into melted candy melts and carefully lay on parchment paper.
- Cut a dark green candy melt to form the stem and carefully press into the middle of the Oreo at the top.
- Once the orange candy melts have set up, pipe on the black eyes, nose and mouth.

Coming up with Halloween Oreo cookies ideas was so fun and there are so many possibilities! Which one is your favorite? I can’t choose just one!
Halloween cookie decorating has never been easier!
How to melt candy melts?
I like to melt 1 cup of candy melts with 1 tbs coconut oil or shortening at a time. Heat for 30 seconds at 50% power, stir, repeat until melted.
If the candy melts are still too thick add more coconut oil 1 teaspoon at a time until you get your desired consistency.

Notes
Tips and Tricks
- One 12 oz bag of candy melts will cover almost entire container of Oreos. The exact amount will vary depending on how much coconut oil you used to thin the candy melts.
- Instead of the food gel you could pipe on black frosting. You can make black frosting my adding black food gel to my dark chocolate frosting recipe.
- Nutrition info is an estimate and doesn't account for the candy melts and decorating items.
