Those days are over for now, but we made so many memories! I hope that’s what you’re doing with your kids and grandkids.

Frequently Asked Questions
In an airtight container in the refrigerator, these will keep for about a week.
You can. They will be good in the freezer for the same amount of time regular OREOs last, about 8 months. For best results, freeze part of your freshly made chocolate covered OREOs a day or so after you make them. It’s a great reason to make a double batch!
