Gift Idea: Chocolate and Vanilla Dipped Oreos with Sprinkles

Here I am with a last minute bargain gift idea that is perfecto for your co-workers, neighbors, babysitter, local wine store clerk (what?), etc.  

They are beyond easy to make and I promise you that the recipients of this dipped cookie will devour them. I made a batch Monday night, brought them to work on Tuesday and they were literally gone by lunch time.  Here are the instructions:

You may notice the candy canes in the picture above. I attempted to dip candy canes, but every candy cane I unwrapped was broken so I ended up throwing them in the trash.  Just stick to the oreos. 

*Lay out large pieces of foil or wax paper before you start step 3

Now you have 2 choices.  

1. You can throw them into a Christmas tin and take them to work for everyone to eat out of (what I did). 

2. Or you can do what I've done in the past and throw a handful of the cookies into saran wrap and tie with a bow to give as gifts.

I've seen people top their dipped oreos with crushed candy canes:

Or turn them into "oreo pops", which I think you need double stuffed oreos for:

The possibilities are endless!  Get to dipping and spreading that Christmas Cheer, y'all.  3 more days till Kris Kringle is here ... eeeeep!
