These Elmo cookies could very well be the cutest things I have ever made. I am so happy with them, and I put together this post together to show you how easy these Sesame Street cookies are to make. P-A-R-T-Y Time…

Let the party begin, but don’t forget to invite Elmo! Everybody just loves Elmo. These Elmo Elmo-decorated cookies are an easy cookie project that will shine at your Elmo Birthday Party or Sesame Street Birthday Party.

It is complete cuteness overload. My favorite part about making these cookies is the simplicity. You do not need to make everything from scratch. The only thing you need to do is set yourself up for decorating. Easy peasy.  

This is a no-bake Elmo Decorated Cookies recipe. I know every mom in the world will rejoice when I tell you that these took less than 45 minutes to make. I put together about 30 cookies at my daughter’s school party. They were an absolute hit. I probably should have made more. See my step-by-step instructions below.

Elmo Cookies – What you need

• Oreos
• Red Candy Melts
• Candy Eyes
• Mini Oreos
• Red Sprinkle
• Orange Tic Tacs
• Wax Paper

How to Make Elmo Cookies

STEP ONE: Gather your supplies and make sure you line your counter with a piece of wax paper. This is super important! It will make your cookies not stick and cleanup will be super easy!

STEP TWO: Next, open your mini Oreo. Using a knife, cut the cookies in half. Take your time with this step. If you rush it you may end up with crumbles instead of half cookies. These halves will end up being Elmo’s smile.

STEP THREE: In a plastic container, melt your candy melt. Melt them in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between. Don’t overcook them. Sometimes you have to let them sit for a minute before you get a good consistency (this isn’t like regular chocolate).

Step Four: Drop your Oreo cookie into the melted candy. Once completely coated, place on wax paper. As you can see in the above picture, your coverage doesn’t have to be perfect. Don’t worry at all.

STEP FIVE: Working FAST! Add two candy eyes, a Tic Tac nose, and half of the mini Oreo for his mouth.

STEP SIX: Generously coat cookies with red sprinkles. Then set aside to allow the candy melt chocolate to set and hard. Then shake off excess sprinkles.

PERFECTO!

What is great about this recipe?

Easy to make – These are super simple to pull together. I like putting everything out like a production line. It makes each step go by fast.

Great flavor – Even though this is a no-bake (mostly store-bought) recipe. Oreo and chocolate go so well together, that you will be wanting more.

It works well with other cookies – Feel free to use other round types of cookies as your base. Oreos work well, but so do Nilla Wafers or Shortbread round Cookies.
