These are really quick and easy to make for Valentines. I have a slight obsession with penguins - they are just so cute! Apparently emperor penguins mate for life and they are often seen as quite romantic. I saw these online and thought it would be a great Valentine project which is also slightly different from your usual heart shaped cookies, brownies, cupcakes ... not that there's anything wrong with those! I have planned a special Valentine bake but I'm not sure if I'll have time to bake it before the 14th so watch this space! I do have another quick no bake recipe to share with you tomorrow that you can make for Valentine.
I'm sending this to a few blog challenges this month.
AlphaBakes hosted by Caroline from Caroline Makes and myself on alternate months. The letter this month is "V" and Caroline is accepting all Valentine related bakes. This is not technically a bake but I hope it's acceptable!
Treat Petite hosted by Kat from the Baking Explorer and Stuart from Cakey Boi. The theme this month is 'Love is in the air' and these definitely fit the bill.
Foodie Friday hosted by Helen from Casa Costello.
#FoodYearLinkup hosted by Charlotte from My Recipe Book. The link up is open to any foodie posts related to events in the Food Bloggers Calendar for February. These are quite obviously for Valentine's Day!
Separate the oreo cookies. Scrape off the crumbs from the white centre with a sharp knife. Cut out a triangle at the top to resemble a heart shape. Use a little icing (I used writing icing in a tube) or edible glue to stick the chocolate chips and heart sprinkles as shown. If you want to create wings, cut out a triangle shape from the discarded oreo cookie. PS technically this is not hand made but hand decorated but I like the ribbon! :)
So freaking cute!! Thank you for entering into Treat Petite!
ReplyDeleteHa ha I thought so too :)
DeleteThose are adorable, what a great idea! I might have a go at making them into seal faces for Valentine's Day ^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'd never have thought of seal faces, hope you had a go.
DeleteI did indeed give them a go, posted them on my blog here: http://cloudninepointone.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/sealy-oreos.html?m=1 :)
DeleteHope you don't mind that I mentioned you!
I love the simplicity of these Penguin Oreos, super cute and super easy.
ReplyDeleteLove them!! I have always been a fan of penguins, but had to stop telling people after one Christmas I received nothing but penguin stuff...socks, jammies, sweaters, mugs and so on it was a bit much. That hasn't stopped me from loving penguins though... and therefore I love these! They are so cute!
ReplyDeleteHa ha I have a lot of penguin related stuff too!
DeleteAbsolutely beautiful Ros!! xo
ReplyDeleteThanks Gloria :)
DeleteI love love love these. I'm a huge fan of playing with food to make it look cute but I've never thought of using Oreos before, such a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining in with #FoodYearLinkup
I wanted something cute and simple and this was perfect!
DeleteOreos disappear far too quickly in this house - my girls would absolutely love these super cute penguins. Thanks so much for joining in with #FoodieFriday New Linky open tomorrow x
