Ingredients
- 24 oreo cookies
- 11 ounces of caramel 312g
- 2 tbsp of heavy cream or whole milk 30ml
- 3 cups of milk chocolate melting wafers, candy bars, or chocolate chips (345g)
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter 113g
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F/176 C. Add the Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse into crumbs.
Or add them to a plastic bag and smash them with a rolling pin.
Melt the butter and add it to the cookie crumbs. Mix the butter in with the crumbs, again using the food processor or in the bag. The result should look like damp sand.
Spray the small loaf bread pans with cookie spray or grease them with shortening.
Add even amounts of the cookie crumbs to each pan. Then press them down and pack them using the pack of a spoon, cup, glass, etc. Bake them in the oven for 8 minutes. Remove them and allow them to cool for about 30 minutes.
Add the heavy cream or milk to the caramels in a microwave-safe bowl and use bursts of 30 seconds, stirring in between until melted. Or melt them in a pot on the stovetop with medium-low heat.
Then pour the caramel evenly on top of the cookie bases. I use a spoon and add spoonfuls to each until all gone, which puts an equal amount on top of each. Now chill the caramel topped cookie base in the fridge for one hour.
Add the chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl and melt in the microwave using bursts of 25 to 30 seconds and stirring in between until melted. Or use a metal bowl and pot with water on the stovetop (double-boiler method).
Remove one of the cookie bases out of the fridge and then place it cookie side down on the cutting board. Cut into 6 to 7 equal pieces. Dip them in the chocolate with a fork one at a time. Allow the excess chocolate to drain off, then place them on a sheet pan or cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Then repeat the process with another cookie base from the fridge, etc.
Place them in the fridge and allow the chocolate to completely set about 30 minutes. When you want to eat them, take them out at room temp for a few minutes before biting into them. Enjoy!
