These Oreo Easter egg and chick cookies only require a few simple ingredients: Oreos, white chocolate melting wafers, food coloring*, M&Ms, and sprinkles. There's no baking required with this recipe, and it's so easy to make that even the kids can help!!

*Make sure to use an oil-based food coloring. Other types of food coloring may cause the melting wafers to seize and thicken up quicker.

To make the Oreo Easter Chick Cookies: Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler over low heat or microwave in a bowl on a low or defrost setting in 30 second increments. Stir often to allow even heating. 

Add in a few drops of yellow food coloring and stir until evenly distributed. Add more coloring as needed until you get a bright yellow "chick" color. Alternatively, you can use the pre-colored candy melts if you don't want to use food coloring.

Place the Oreos, one at a time, onto a fork and dip it into the melted wafers until completely coated. Gently tap the fork on the side of the bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place the dipped cookie onto the prepared baking sheet.

*No matter which method you use for melting, be sure to use low heat. Melting with high heat can cause the melts to seize, which makes the chocolate thick and clumpy. Needless to say, it will make it very difficult to get an even coating on the cookies.

When it comes to assembling the chicks, it’s best to work in batches of 3-4 cookies at a time so the chocolate doesn't set up before you get to them. Add all of the faces first: Use 2 black sugar pearl sprinkles for eyes, and then center an orange heart sprinkle right below for the beak.

Once the faces are on, add two orange heart sprinkles toward the bottom for the feet. At the top, place a few orange jimmies in the center for hair. Lastly, place one half of a yellow M&M on both sides at angles for the wings.

*If you don't want to use the black pearl sprinkles, you can use candy eyes or pipe melted black candy melt eyes instead.

After decorating all of the chick cookies, leave them on the baking sheet for the chocolate to completely harden. You can either let the cookies sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, or make it faster by putting the baking sheet in the fridge.

Add in a few drops of pink or purple food coloring (split the chocolate into separate bowls and create multiple colors) and stir until evenly distributed. Add more coloring as needed until you get a pretty pastel shade. Alternatively, you can use the pre-colored candy melts if you don't want to use food coloring.

When it comes to assembling the eggs, it’s best to work in batches of 3-4 cookies at a time so the chocolate doesn't set up before you get to them. Place some of the white melted chocolate into a small piping bag and snip a tiny piece off the end.

Drizzle lines of chocolate onto the Oreos. Immediately top with spring nonpareil sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
