A Brief History of St. Patrick's Day: St. Patrick's Day honors the patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick, who is credited with bringing Christianity to the Emerald Isle in the 5th century. What began as a religious feast day commemorating St. Patrick's death has evolved into a global celebration of Irish culture, heritage, and identity. Over the centuries, St. Patrick's Day has become synonymous with parades, shamrocks, leprechauns, and, of course, indulgent treats like the ones we're about to create.

Ingredients You'll Need: Oreo Cookies Black Candy Melts Gold Sprinkles Rainbow Candies Four Leaf Clover Sprinkles Instructions: Prepare Your Workstation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Dip Your Cookies: Using a fork or dipping tool, carefully dip each Oreo cookie into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the dipped cookie onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle on the Gold: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle gold sprinkles generously over the top edge of the dipped cookies. This will give them that coveted "pot of gold" appearance. Add the Clover Sprinkles: Gently add clover sprinkles to the bottom of each cookie for a festive touch Rainbow Touch: Add a bit of rainbow to the top of the cookie. You can add this in the crease where the OREO cream is. Or, you can add it to the back of the cookie. It wil stick while the candy melts are still wet. Chill and Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has hardened completely.
