Instructions
Place your Oreos in a single layer on a serving plate. Wash and dry your strawberries. Slice the stem off of each strawberry.
Heat the green candy melts according to the package directions, reheating as necessary to keep the mixture dippable.
Pierce a strawberry with a fork and dip it in the candy mixture until it's coated in green. Tap the fork on the side of the bowl to prevent dripping.
Sprinkle with nonpareils and use a second fork to place the strawberry onto the center of the Oreo.
