Oreo Cup Directions
  1. Chocolate Cup/Decor Directions For this recipe you are going to need a double boiler. If you do not have one, use a stainless steel bowl that can fit inside of a large pot. Add water to the large pot. Place the stainless steel bowl inside. If you are using a double boiler, add some water to the bottom half and then put the smaller pot on top. Then pour the candy melts into the top half of a double boiler. Turn the gas or electric on to a medium heat. Keep a close eye on the chocolate as it will soon melt. Continue to stir the chocolate as it melts. Remove from heat. Stir well. Add the gel food coloring and stir until you have the color that you want. Carefully pour the melted chocolate into the shot mold/ chocolate design mold. Place in the freezer for 2 hours or until firm. Remove from the freezer and carefully remove from the shot mold/ decor mold. Set aside.

Whisk the liquid mixture constantly until it begins to thicken. It will be almost doubling in size. As you take the pot off of the heat, begin to add the white chocolate wafers, and stir. Continue to stir until the chocolate has completely melted. Allow the chocolate to cool to room temp. Add the rest of the whipping cream into a glass bowl. Whip it until stiff peaks form.
