Description

Create spooky Halloween Oreo Bat Cookies that are perfect for festive treats! These no-bake cookies feature Double Stuf Oreo halves assembled with melted chocolate to form bat wings, eyes, and horns, making a fun and easy recipe for kids and adults alike during the Halloween season.


Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • 30 Oreo cookies, Double Stuf

Decorations

  • 40 candy eyes
  • ¾ cup mini semisweet chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Prep the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare a clean surface for assembling the cookies.
  2. Separate and remove cream: Take 10 Oreo cookies and gently split each into two halves to get 20 halves. Carefully scrape off the cream filling from these halves using a butter knife; these will be used as the bat wings.
  3. Break wing pieces: Break each of the 20 Oreo halves without cream in half again using your hands or a thin knife, then pair similar-sized pieces together to form wings.
  4. Melt the chocolate: Reserve ¼ cup of mini semisweet chocolate chips for decorating. Melt the remaining ½ cup chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at low power, microwaving in 30-second intervals and stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
  5. Assemble the wings: Attach the prepared Oreo wing pieces to one Oreo half that still has cream filling by applying a small amount of melted chocolate as glue in the center. Then place another Oreo half on top to sandwich together and set this on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Create the horns: Using a toothpick or skewer, dab a small amount of melted chocolate near the top of the bat’s head. Place 2 mini chocolate chips as horns on this spot.
  7. Add the eyes: Apply a bit more melted chocolate to the center of the bat’s face and stick two candy eyes onto each bat.
  8. Repeat: Continue assembling all cookies following the above steps until all Oreo bats are complete.
  9. Chill to set: Allow the melted chocolate to set completely in a cool area, or to speed up the process, refrigerate the assembled Oreo bats before serving.

Notes

  • You can melt chocolate chips using a microwave or a double boiler—stir frequently to prevent scorching.
  • For sturdier bat wings, use Double Stuf or Mega Stuf Oreos as they have extra cream filling to hold pieces together better. If using regular Oreos, you might add a bit of frosting or melted chocolate in the filling to ensure assembly stays intact.
  • Refrigerating the finished bats will speed up setting, especially in warm environments, and keep the treats fresh until serving.
