Ingredients

12 double-stuffed chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreo brand recommended for best results)
Halloween sprinkles (Betty Crocker is a good option)
12 chocolate candy kisses (unwrapped)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (melted over a double boiler or in the microwave)

Instructions

Step 1: Lay a sheet of parchment paper on the counter. Arrange the 12 Oreo cookies on the parchment for easy decorating. Have the unwrapped chocolate candy kisses and Halloween sprinkles nearby.
Step 2: Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each, until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted. Avoid overheating to prevent burning.
Step 3: Take each Oreo and dunk one side into the melted chocolate. Place the chocolate-coated side facing up on the parchment paper. Quickly press an unwrapped chocolate kiss into the center of the melted chocolate on each cookie. Immediately sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles around the rim before the chocolate hardens. Repeat with all cookies.

Tips & Variations

Use white chocolate chips instead of regular chocolate for a different look and flavor.
Try adding a few drops of food coloring to the melted chocolate to customize the colors of your witch hats.
Place the assembled cookies in the fridge for a few minutes to speed up the chocolate setting process.

Storage

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To keep the chocolate firm, you can refrigerate them, but bring to room temperature before serving for best texture. Reheating is not necessary.

How to Serve

The image shows several small witch hat-shaped treats arranged neatly on a black tray. Each treat has a dark chocolate cookie as the base, topped with a smooth layer of milk chocolate. Around the milk chocolate, colorful sprinkles in green, purple, orange, and black create a ring that looks like a hat’s brim. At the center of each treat, a solid milk chocolate Hershey kiss sits upright, forming the pointed witch hat top. The whole tray is placed on an orange cloth with a couple of autumn leaves scattered nearby, all set on a white marbled texture surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular Oreos instead of double-stuffed?

Yes, you can use regular Oreos, but the double-stuffed variety offers a thicker base for the chocolate and candy kiss to adhere to better.

What other sprinkles work well for this recipe?

Any small, colorful sprinkles will work. Look for festive Halloween shapes or simply use orange, black, purple, or green sprinkles to keep the theme fun and vibrant.

Cookies and Decorations

12 double-stuffed chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreo brand recommended)
12 chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped
Halloween sprinkles (e.g., Betty Crocker brand)

Chocolate Dip

1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Prepare Your Work Area and Ingredients: Lay a sheet of parchment paper on a counter or flat surface. Arrange the 12 double-stuffed Oreo cookies spaced out on the parchment to get ready for decorating. Have the unwrapped chocolate candy kisses and Halloween-themed sprinkles within easy reach to streamline the assembly process.
Melt the Chocolate Chips: Place 1/2 cup of chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring thoroughly with a rubber spatula after each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Take care to avoid overheating to prevent burning the chocolate.
Assemble the Witch Hat Cookies: Take each Oreo cookie and dip one side into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the chocolate-coated side facing up on the parchment paper. Immediately press an unwrapped Hershey’s Kiss into the center of the melted chocolate on each cookie. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles around the rim of the cookie to decorate. Repeat this process with all cookies, then allow them to set.

Notes

Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
Melting chocolate slowly in intervals helps avoid burning and achieves a smooth finish.
Press the candy kiss into the melted chocolate quickly before it hardens for proper adhesion.
For best results, use fresh double-stuffed Oreos and unwrapped candy kisses.
These cookies are best served the same day but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
