Best Christmas Cookie Recipe | Chocolate Covered Oreos

I’m not a baker. It’s too much of a science and you need to be exact with the measurements and that’s not me.

So, if you’re like me and you want to “make” some cookies that are delicious and no effort these chocolate covered oreos are for you!

Chocolate Covered Oreos

A delicious and beautiful holiday cookie for those moms who want Pinterest worthy cookies without the hassell of baking.

Print Recipe

Ingredients

Oreos
White and Dark Chocolate Candy Melts
Parchment Paper
Red and Green Sprinkles
Cupcake Wrappers

Instructions

Place the white chocolate candy melts in a microwaveable bowl and the dark chocolate candy melts in a separate microwaveable bowl.
Melt in 30 seconds increments and mixing in between until all the chips melted.
Dip half of the box of Oreos in the white chocolate melts and the other half in the dark chocolate melts.
Allow the excess chocolate to drip off before placing on the parchment paper.
Sprinkle the sprinkles on the oreos immediately after being dipped, so they set before the chocolate dries.
Wait for the chocolate to dry.
Place them in cupcake wrappers.
Enjoy!

Holiday Activities & Events In Edmonton

A Winter city is what Edmonton is! As Edmontonians we face climate challenges, like long winters, that most people will never have to.

But thankfully Edmonton embraces the cold and there is still plenty to do!

Ice Castles | This will be their second year in a row coming to Edmonton, and if you missed it last year you MUST go this year. Ice Castles are on from December 30, 2016 – March 15, 2017.

Alberta Legislature Grounds | Bundle up in your warmest gear and take a nighttime stroll through the gorgeously decorated Leg grounds. It seems like every tree is adorned with lights. It is a beautiful sight!

Art Gallery of Alberta | Looking for an activity to do inside? The AGA is constantly changing their exhibits, so check out their website for the last galleries and take a walk through the innovative building.

Candy Cane Lane | Join the Edmonton tradition of Candy Cane Lane – a spectacular lights display. It goes on from December 9, 2016 – January 1, 2017.

Reel Family Cinema at Metro Cinema | They will be showing: The Polar Express December 17th at 2 PM, Labyrinth December 26th at 2 PM, The Wizard Of Oz December 31st at 2 PM.

Calligraphy Workshop For Beginners | Many of you saw my Instastory where I attended Little Black Letter Company‘s calligraphy workshop – it was a blast! It was held at Little Brick cafe and it was the perfect winter setting. Though it was her last workshop of this year (she’s pregnant and due in February), I highly recommend attending one of her workshops in the new year.

Social Made Co. Workshops | The Social Made Co. workshops are ever changing, you never know what you’ll be making or when it will be until you receive the details if you’re on their email list. It’s like a secret society! Though from their social media they seem to have a really fun time!

Best Holiday Hairstyle

Braids are my jam for two reasons: they’re on trend and they keep your hair out of your face. How did I complete this side dutch braid look?

Step One | Put in hair extensions, if you desire a thicker and longer braid.

Step Two | Part your hair and curl the ends. I like to hold the curl together for 10 seconds after my hair curls on my Nu.me 25cm wand so it holds it’s form longer throughout the day.

Step Three | The dry winter air makes my hair super frizzy so I apply a bit of defrizzing product to my ends.

Step Four | Smooth one side of your hair over the other shoulder so all your hair is on one side. Then take the beginning hair strands of your dutch braid and tease them for extra volume on top.

Step Five | If you have never done a dutch braid, you can find further instructions here. After you’ve braided your hair all the way down, secure it with an elastic, then wrap a strand of hair around the elastic and pin it into the braid with a bobby pin.

Step Six | Then give your hair a healthy dose of hairspray! Good old hairspray…
