How to make Chocolate Peppermint Dipped Oreos

- Melt your chocolate with the coconut oil or shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Mix in your peppermint extract if you're adding it.
- Toss in a cookie, scoop it up with your fork, tap it on the side to remove any excess chocolate, and place it on the parchment paper.
- Sprinkle your peppermint pieces on top, and let dry until set.
This is a fun project for the kids to get involved in, maybe a little messy but they'll have a blast. Oh, and you may want to check out my Polar Bear Cookies or my Oreo Dipped Christmas Cookies.
