Chocolate Hockey Pucks
Description
Combine peanut butter cups with chocolate sandwich cookies and coat with melted chocolate for edible 'hockey puck' treats.
Ingredients
•
16 chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
•
16 chocolate-covered peanut butter cups (such as Reese's®)
•
1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
•
2 tablespoons shortening
Directions
1
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
2
Split each sandwich cookie open using a paring knife, putting as much filling as possible on one side of the cookie. Arrange cookies on a microwave-safe plate. Place 1 peanut butter cup on the filling-side of each cookie; cover with the remaining cookie top.
3
Heat cookie sandwiches in the microwave until chocolate is slightly softened, about 5 seconds. Press cookie sandwich firmly together to adhere both sides of the cookie to the peanut butter cup.
4
Place chocolate chips and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute, remove, stir, and repeat in 30 second increments until chocolate is smooth and melted.
5
Dip each cookie sandwich in the melted chocolate mixture, completely covering in chocolate. Allow excess to drip off before placing on waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Hide any finger prints on the cookies with extra melted chocolate. Freeze the 'hockey pucks' until chocolate is hardened, at least 30 minutes.
