Description

Delightful and spooky Oreo Bats that are perfect treats for Halloween or any fun occasion. These no-bake desserts combine Oreo cookies, Hershey’s chocolate bars, and candy eyes to create adorable bat shapes with chocolate ears and wings. Easy to assemble and guaranteed to impress kids and adults alike!


Ingredients

Scale

Bat Body

  • 24 Oreo cookies

Bat Ears

  • 2-3 snack-sized Hershey bars

Adhesive and Decoration

  • ½ cup chocolate melting wafers
  • 24 candy eyes


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chocolate Ears: Unwrap 2 to 3 snack-sized Hershey bars and cut each into four smaller bars. Carefully use a sharp knife to cut three small triangles from each smaller bar to create the bat ears.
  2. Prepare the Oreo Cookies: Separate all 24 Oreo cookies. To have more filling on 12 cookies, scrape the cream filling off the other 12 cookies and add it to them. If using Double Stuffed Oreos, this step can be skipped because they already have plenty of cream filling.
  3. Cut the Bat Wings: Using a serrated knife, cut 12 of the Oreo cookie halves without cream frosting in half. These halves will serve as the bat wings. Have an extra 12 cookie halves ready in case some break during cutting.
  4. Assemble the Bat Shape: Press two small chocolate ears into the top of the cream filling on each filled cookie. Next, gently press two cookie halves into the sides of the Oreo at a slight angle to resemble bat wings. Use melted chocolate to secure the wings and ears if needed.
  5. Seal the Bat: Add a drop of melted chocolate in the center of the cream filling, then place one unfrosted Oreo cookie on top and press gently to sandwich together.
  6. Add the Eyes: Use a toothpick to dab melted chocolate on the back of each candy eye, then attach two eyes onto the front of each bat to complete the look.

Notes

  • Double Stuffed Oreos can simplify assembly by providing extra cream filling, eliminating the need to transfer cream between cookies.
  • If any cookie halves break while cutting wings, use the extra halved cookies as replacements.
  • Keep the assembled Oreo bats refrigerated if not serving immediately to keep the chocolate solid and the shape intact.
  • You can substitute candy eyes with mini chocolate chips if candy eyes are not available.
  • Use a gentle touch when pressing the wings and ears into the cream to avoid breaking the cookies.
