OREO Day of the Dead Cookies

Twist the cookie apart gently in a back-and-forth motion to release one cookie half from the creme filling.  Or, you can use the tip of a small small metal spatula to scrape the creme close to one half of the cookie.  Any creme remaining on the plain cookie half can be spread onto the creme-topped cookie half. 

Use a toothpick dipped into assorted gel food colors to add special designs to your OREO Day of the Dead Cookie. For best results, you will need to dip the toothpick into the gel food color each time you want to add a dot of color to the creme filling. 

Use small round black candies to make the eyes and/or add heart- or flower-shaped sprinkles for the nose and mouth. 

Prepare using your favorite variety of OREO Cookies.
