INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup (68 g) creamy peanut butter

3 tablespoons (about 25 g) powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 tablespoon corn syrup

2 Oreo cookies

Some white and milk chocolate melting wafers

1 Oreo Cookie for topping (optional)


SUPPLIES

A bowl

A silicone mold

A couple of scoops

A cutting board


DIRECTIONS

Carefully twist each Oreo to separate the halves. Remove and save the cream filling.

Chop the cookies and set them aside, keeping the crumbs.

In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, salt, corn syrup, and Oreo cream filling. Mix until it’s fully combined.

Mix in the cookie crumbs and set the filling aside.

Melt the milk chocolate wafers according to package directions. Add a thin layer of chocolate to each mold cavity. Put the mold in the refrigerator for a few minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

Scoop some filling, form it into a small disk, and place it on a cutting board. For me, 1 teaspoon was the right amount.

Add a little more melted chocolate to a mold cavity and gently press a filling disk into the cavity, ensuring that the top of the disk is below the top of the mold. The melted chocolate should rise up so the disk is halfway embedded.

It may take a couple of tries to determine how much chocolate to add, as it will depend on the size of your mold. For me, it was about 3/4 teaspoon. This isn’t a huge deal, I just want it to look similar to the commercial version.

Repeat with the remaining disks.

Return the mold to the refrigerator for a few minutes.

Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions. Spoon the white chocolate into each cavity, filling to the top.

Here’s where I went rogue. The commercial version looks great, but I wanted to crank up the wow factor. So, I crushed a third cookie and used the crumbs as a topping. I think it looks far more attractive, and I imagine it’ll increase the crunch factor, as well.

Return the mold to the refrigerator one more time to allow the white chocolate to fully set, then carefully remove the candy from the mold.
