Chocolate Mint Oreo Cups

Gently twist the cookies in half and use a butter knife to remove the slab of mint filling from the bottom half of the cookie. Repeat this until all of the cookies have been taken apart. Set the bowl of mint filling pieces aside.

In a medium-sized microwave safe bowl, slowly melt one cup of chocolate and one tablespoon of milk at a time (heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between heating increments). Or you can place the bowl over a pot of simmering water but make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Do not burn your chocolate.

Spoon a dab of melted chocolate on the bottom of a cupcake liner and slowly press two stacked pieces of mint filling over the chocolate to spread the chocolate and create your bottom layer. Think of this as the thin bottom layer of a peanut butter cup.

Pour chocolate over the filling and sprinkle with crushed Oreo cookies if desired. Heat more chocolate and almond milk as needed. Repeat until you are finished with the remaining chocolate and mint. Refrigerate for at least two hours before enjoying.
