Ingredients
Scale
Cookies and Coating
- 1 (12 oz.) package white candy coating
- 12 Oreo cookies
Decorations
- Yellow fondant (enough to roll twelve 1/2 inch oval shaped balls)
- Black edible food coloring marker
- Red heart sprinkles
- White heart sprinkles
Instructions
- Melt the Candy Coating: Begin by melting the white candy coating in the microwave as per the package instructions until smooth and fluid.
- Dip the Oreos: Pour the melted coating into a deep container. Submerge each Oreo cookie completely in the coating using a fork, then tap the fork against the container to remove any excess coating.
- Set the Coated Cookies: Carefully slide each coated cookie onto parchment paper and allow the coating to set until firm.
- Create Fondant Bees: Roll yellow fondant into twelve oval-shaped balls approximately 1/2 inch in size to form the bodies of the bees.
- Decorate the Bees: Use a black edible food coloring marker to draw bee stripes and two dots for eyes on each fondant bee.
- Attach Wings: Use a toothpick dipped in melted white candy coating to affix two white heart sprinkles onto each fondant bee to resemble wings.
- Place Bees on Cookies: Using melted white candy coating as glue, attach each fondant bee to the top of a coated cookie.
- Add Heart Sprinkles: Also affix a red heart sprinkle on the opposite side of the bee on each cookie with melted white candy coating.
- Let Dry Completely: Allow all decorations to dry fully so they are secure.
- Draw Bee Lines: Once dry, use the black edible marker to create dashed lines connecting the fondant bee to the red heart, simulating a bee’s flight path.
Notes
- Ensure the candy coating is smooth and not overheated to avoid clumping.
- Work quickly when attaching decorations before the coating hardens.
- If fondant is sticky, dust with a little cornstarch to make it easier to roll.
- Store finished cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
- These cookies can be customized with different colored fondant or sprinkles for various occasions.
