Ingredient list

3 OREO Cookies

Directions

Twist the top and bottom halves of each cookie in opposite directions to separate the cookie halves, leaving all the creme on one half of each cookie.

Carve out the creme into a skull shape using a small metal spatula, toothpick or wooden skewer, carefully removing and discarding the excess creme from around the skulls.

Draw the skulls' mouths and noses in the creme using a toothpick or skewer. Use the tip of a round pastry tube or toothpick to cut small circles in the skulls for the eyes. Discard the removed creme.

Recipe Tips

Hints on Twisting the Cookies ApartTwist the cookies apart gently in a back-and-forth motion to release one cookie half from the creme. Or, you can use a small metal spatula to scrape the creme close to one half of the cookie. Any creme remaining on the plain cookie halves can be spread onto the creme-topped cookie halves. If desired, you can scrape off and discard any creme smudges with the spatula, skewer or toothpick.
Make it EasyUse small round black candies to make the skulls' eyes, then use black sprinkles or nonpareils to make the skulls' noses and mouths.
