How to Make It

Line a baking sheet with parchment and melt the black candy melts in short microwave bursts until smooth. Dip each Oreo all the way into the black coating, let the extra drip off, and lay it flat on the parchment. While the coating is still wet, press on two mini chocolate chips for ears and two candy eyeballs for eyes, and add whiskers if you’re using them. Let them set at room temperature.

Tips for the Best Black Cat Oreo Cookies

• Melt in short bursts. 30 seconds at a time, stirring.
• Let the extra drip off. A thin coat looks neatest.
• Decorate while wet. Ears and eyes stick before it sets.
• Add whiskers early. Put them on before the coating sets.
• Let them set. 20 minutes at room temperature.
