Saint Patrick’s Day Dipped Oreo Cookies

Ever since I learned to bake, I have preferred homemade cookies over the store bought varieties. There’s just something about a warm-out-of-the-oven, soft and chewy cookie that the brands in stores just can’t replicate. The one exception to that rule is Oreos. I’ve never found a recipe that resulted in anything similar to an Oreo! These Saint Patrick’s Day Dipped Oreo Cookies combine the best of both worlds: the crispness of America’s favorite dip-in-milk cookie and a little homemade twist.

Don’t they just look like fun? With Saint Patrick’s day quickly approaching, I am throwing green sprinkles on everything!

Seriously, I am like Oprah up in here, you get a green sprinkle, you get a green sprinkle, everyone gets a green sprinkle!!

This is also a really simple recipe that the kids can get involved with, because we all know that the kids love helping in the kitchen, right? Yeah, not so much. Since there’s no real cooking involved, and there’s lots of cookies, chocolate and sprinkles involved, it should be easy to get them on board.
