If you’re looking for a holiday, baby or wedding shower dessert that appears to be fancy, but is incredibly easy to make, you’ve come to the right place! These Oreo Chocolate Pecan Bombs can be made in anyone’s kitchen, but they look like they just came out of a gourmet chocolatier! These would also make excellent homemade gifts!
Ingredients:
12 Oreo Cookies (I used Double Stuf)
1 Tbsp solid shortening
1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 tsp water
12 pretzel snaps
12 large whole pecans
1/2 cup Kraft caramels
You’ll also need an Oreo cookie mold
Line a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper and set aside. In a double boiler, melt the solid shortening. Add the milk chocolate chips and stir occasionally until melted. Once they’re completely melted and smooth, you may want to transfer the melted chocolate into a smaller bowl for easier handling.
Add 2 tablespoons of the melted chocolate to each pocket of the mold. Place an Oreo cookie on top of the melted chocolate. Spoon additional melted chocolate on top of each cookie until they are covered completely. You may have to tap the molds a bit if you see any air bubbles. Chill in the refrigerator for one hour.
Once chilled, pop the cookies out of their mold and place them on the baking sheet. Transfer the unwrapped caramels to a microwave safe bowl. Add 1 tsp of water and microwave for 30 seconds. Remove the bowl and stir. Continue to microwave in 10 second increments until completely melted and smooth. Allow the caramel to cool for 5 minutes. Place a pretzel snap on top of each cookie. Lay a whole pecan on top of each pretzel. Then drizzle the caramel on top of each Oreo. Serve and enjoy!
