Get ready to dive into the sweet world of penguin cookies, where adorable shapes meet irresistible flavors. These delightful treats are a feast for the taste buds and a whimsical addition to any occasion. Penguin cookies will surely bring smiles and joy. So, gather your ingredients, and let’s shuffle into a world of chocolaty fun with these charming penguin-shaped delights!
Ingredients
- 1 package Chocolate Oreo Cookies
- 1 package Ghirardelli Chocolate Wafers
- 1 package Ghirardelli White Chocolate Wafers
- 1 package M&M's
- 1 package mini M&M's
- 1 package small candy eyes
- 1 package Air Heads Xtremes Sweetly Sour Candy Rainbow Berry
Instructions
- Using a double boiler, melt the Ghirardelli Chocolate wafers.
- Line a cookie sheet with wax paper.
- Place one Oreo cookie at a time in the double boiler, working with a fork to spread the chocolate over it and then flip it over to the other side of the cookie.
- While the chocolate Oreo is still warm, position the white chocolate wafer in the middle of the cookie for the belly.
- Now, add the two small candy eyes as pictured before the chocolate dries.
- Set the mini M&M on it’s side for the nose between the eyes and belly.
- The chocolate covering the Oreo should still be warm enough to act as the "glue" to hold the belly, eyes, and nose in position.
- Set aside to dry for one hour.
- Separate the regular size M&M’s by color. Match the color of the M&M’s to one of the colors on the Air Heads Xtremes rainbow. Ex: if the earmuffs are orange then cut the orange stripe out of the rainbow sweetly sour candy.
- Place the M&M's for the earmuffs with the melted chocolate first. Then, add the matching headband cut from the piece of rainbow candy. You will still use the melted chocolate for the glue. If the melted chocolate has hardened, then melt it again.

These are adorable and look fun to make. I wonder if Ghirardelli sell mint chocolate wafers? I love the mint fudge covered Oreos, but they NEVER sell them here. I even contacted the company about it. Maybe I can make my own.
Your Ear Muff Oreo Cookies look adorable! Thanks so much for sharing this awesome post with us at Full Plate Thursday. Have a great week and hope to see you again real soon!
