White Chocolate Covered Black Cherry Oreos

Tuesday, March 6 was Oreo's 100th birthday, so in honor of the chocolate and cream sandwich cookie I thought I'd create a twist on the classic.  I've often seen Oreos dipped in chocolate or coated with peanut butter (which are amazing).

I wanted to do something a little different and loved the idea of adding in a fruit flavor.  I've seen Oreos paired with raspberries several times, so I settled on using the flavor of black cherries.


These little guys are very easy to assemble and I think the use of black cherry preserves make for a fun and tasty unexpected surprise.  Just make sure you don't keep these things around the house for too long...they're addictive!

One thing I'd like to note about this recipe is that it isn't one of those where if you're off my a smidgen it will kill the whole thing.  The ratio of preserves to powdered sugar just seemed to be what gave the fruit a firmer consistency.

And last, but not least, I wanted to point out that you might notice something different about this post....can you guess what it is??  Well, first off there is a page break and then you "read more" to get the recipe.  I think this change will make for a cleaner home page.

I've also added a printable recipe link to this post.  How annoying is it to have to drab your entire laptop into the kitchen just to recreate something?  Well, this solution takes care of that :)  I'll be working on updated all posts with this new feature, so stay tuned!
