Chocolate Dipped Peppermint Oreos

These cookies were Henry’s idea and it was a great idea!  He loves chocolate and peppermint.  We bought lots of different kinds of chocolate at the baking shop.  There were lots of different prices and qualities of the chocolate and it turns out the Guittard chocolate was the best.  We made more using a cheaper candy coating chocolate and both agreed they were not as good.  There really isn’t a recipe but this is how we made them.  Melt a good quality chocolate in the microwave stirring at 30 second intervals.  Dip the Oreo cookie in the melted chocolate to cover, place on parchment paper, when hardened dip the top half in melted white chocolate and then in crushed candy canes and set to harden again.  Pretty easy and so good!  These were a hit at the cookie party.
