Melt the chocolate and dip (all) the Oreos in it coating them completely.
Use a fork to help you remove the Oreos, lightly tap off excess chocolate and allow to set for about 5 minutes.
Pour the excess chocolate into a piping bag or ziplock bag and set it aside.
Carefully add a chocolate wafer (for the nose). Place the sprinkles for the eyes and allow to finish drying for 20 minutes. Reheat the chocolate in the piping bag for 15-20 seconds.
Use it to glue on the heart for the nose and the ears.
Allow the bear face to chill in the fridge for 15 mins to make sure it can be handled.
Pipe frosting onto your cupcakes.
Place the bear faces on the cupcakes standing up or laying down.
Notes
This Recipe Can be Doubled: A great recipe for a crowd. Simply increase the ingredients proportionately and split it into more cupcake pans.
Add Coconut: Truly a fun twist would be to add coconut to a polar bear, white cupcake.
Short cut tip: Purchase premade cupcakes and then just do the decorating.
Variation tip: Pipe little heart noses or use heart candies for the bear's nose. So sweet.
Alternate ingredient: Add nuts or chocolate chips to the cake before baking for an added boost of flavor.
Hack: Use a folded paper towel to help hold the "ears" in place while they dry.
