• Once candy melts are fully melted, turn the heat to low while you dip the strawberries using a toothpick inserted into the cut end.
• Shake off excess candy coating gently. Using a second toothpick inserted into the pointed end of the dipped strawberry, carefully place the strawberry on top of the icing on the Oreo.
• Decorate with sprinkles and a candy star while the candy coating is still wet. It will usually dry in about 10 minutes.
