How to Make Oreo Cookie Bats (step-by-step directions)
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Carefully separate the Oreo cookies and remove the cream filling. (Photo 1)
- Break each Oreo cookie half into two pieces to create the little bat wings.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe piping bag using 30-second increments on low power. (Photo 2)
- Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly before snipping the tip of the piping bag.
- Place unwrapped Reese’s cups on the prepared tray and pipe a small amount of chocolate on top. (Photo 3)
- Gently press two Oreo “wings” onto each Reese’s cup, holding them in place for a few seconds. (Photo 4)
- Pipe a thin line of chocolate across the wings to connect them. (Photo 5)
- Add two candy eyes to each bat using the melted chocolate. (Photo 6)
- Allow these simple treats to cool completely, or chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
Recipe Tips
- Work quickly when attaching the wings, as the chocolate will start to set.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, use a zip-lock bag with a corner snipped off.
- For extra stability, you can pipe a small amount of chocolate on the bottom of each Reese’s cup to “glue” it to the parchment paper.
- If the chocolate hardens in the piping bag, briefly reheat it in the microwave.
Storing Tips
Store these Miniature Reese’s Oreo Bats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. Be sure to separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
