How to make Mickey Mouse strawberries:
1. Tear off a sheet of wax paper and place it on the cookie sheet, set sheet close to your cooking surface.
2. Fill the bottom pot 1/4 with water and place the other pot on top. Pour the melting wafers into the top pot and turn the heat to medium.
3. Stir with a spoon until melted and dip in a strawberry. Place the strawberries onto the wax paper. Repeat process until all strawberries are dipped or you’re out of chocolate.
4. Place in fridge for at least twenty minutes, and meanwhile clean out your top pot. Remove from fridge when you are ready to continue.
5. Add the red candy melts to the clean pot and mix until melted.
6. Dip the strawberry half way so that the red looks like “pants”
7. Place strawberry onto wax paper and add two yellow M&M’s.
8. Take 1 mini Oreo and pull apart. Scrape off the filling. Add a tiny amount of the candy melt to the bottom of the mini Oreo and place on the chocolate part of the strawberry for “ears”.
