With the Frosted Christmas Oreos I’ve done it again…
I’ve prepared a non-recipe, a cute little idea to maybe make if we have kids or grandchildren—a fun way to present the famous American cookies for the Christmas and New Year’s period!
I don’t have much to tell you except to carefully prepare the frosting by adding the liquid, which can be just water or water with a drop of lemon juice very slowly, because if the frosting becomes liquid, it won’t be useful for making defined lines and will turn into a mess… I know from experience sob sob!
If you look closely, even if it’s not so evident, the decorated CHRISTMAS OREO cookie in the center of the photo is dipped in melted white chocolate but I confess I prefer those with white frosting!
I saw a photo and thought of replicating the decorated CHRISTMAS THEME cookie where we can change the colors of the frosting, we can use other cookies, even simple butter shortbread maybe made with the amazing Milano shortcrust by Iginio Massari

If you are good with fondant you could also make sweet little trees with this sweet paste and if you want to try making it in your kitchens, here’s the recipe I used to make Arianna’s baptism cake many years ago!

If instead of frosting you want to dip the OREO cookie in white chocolate, melt the chocolate in a water bath, dip the cookie, and proceed with decorating using the piping bag, adding sugar sprinkles before the green-colored frosting is perfectly solidified!
With this cold, I placed the decorated CHRISTMAS THEME Oreo cookies on a table on the balcony, protecting them with parchment paper.

Annalisa says…
If you want to be quick, fill a glass with powdered sugar then add a teaspoon of water and 2 drops of lemon juice then mix vigorously with a teaspoon to get a frosting with which you’ll decorate shortbread cookies…
Add a tiny drop of green food coloring and go!
