Confession time. I actually made these before my surgery but saved this for now. And why not? I bought this candy mold months ago and just finally found an afternoon to try it out. Yes it is a candy mold that you put some melted chocolate into. The hearts can be 'painted' with colored candy melts first but I was short on time and it isn't any where near Valentine's Day! But I digress. After putting in the chocolate and tapping the mold to release air bubbles and settle the chocolate you place one sandwich cookie in each mold. I used Oreos and maybe a tad bit too much chocolate but really, can you have too much chocolate? Into the freezer they go to set up for a few minutes before popping them out on the wax paper. This photo I thought to get showing before and after. These were by the way a hit with the grandkids although both admitted that one was plenty of chocolate at a time! Can you imagine those words coming out of a kid's mouth? Yeah, I know 18 and 19 are big kids but still!
This was fun and an easy treat. I made 2 dozen with one bag of Wilton's Chocolate Melts but as you could tell I was probably a tad bit generous with the chocolate and will probably get more next time.
