My middle child "J" just turned 8 and I wanted to come up with a fun snack to bring into his class to celebrate. There are nut allergies in the classroom and I didn't want anyone to be left out. So these little dandies only require 2 ingredients: Oreos and Candy Melts.
OK- there is a third ingredient. For smoother melted chocolate, add a little vegetable oil. See how much better the yellow ones look? I just dipped each Oreo in the melted chocolate and butted two up against each other, adding a bit more chocolate on the joint to keep them connected.
I love my little Pampered Chef icing bottle. It is a pain to clean but super easy to use.
I just piped on the number 8 and put in a cool spot for a couple hours until all the chocolate coating had hardened.
Using my Creative Memories Storybook Creator digital program, I created these fun tags to attach to each treat.
Voila!
I believe Oreo just had their 100th Birthday too! :)

Your right- You could turn the 8 sideways and put a chocolate covered pretzel rod in front to make the 100:)
