Equipment
- Lollipop Sticks
- Microwave-safe bowls or cups
- Parchment Paper or Wax Paper
- Disposable candy piping bag (optional)
Ingredients
Oreo Pop Components
- 1 package Oreo Cookies about 36 cookies
- 18 lollipop sticks 4 inches each
Candy Melts & Decorations
- 1 cup red candy melts
- 1 cup bright pink candy melts
- 1 cup bright white candy melts
- Assorted Valentine's Day sprinkles jumbo hearts, mini hearts, sugar pearls
Instructions
- Prepare Your Cookies: Gently twist apart each Oreo cookie, separating it into two halves.
- Melt a Dab of Candy: In one of your microwave-safe cups, melt a tiny bit of any color candy melt. Heat for 20 seconds, stir, and repeat until smooth.
- Assemble the Pops: Dip one end of a lollipop stick into the melted candy, then gently place it between the two Oreo halves. Press them back together so the stick is sandwiched securely. Place these on parchment paper and let them chill in the fridge or freezer for about 10-15 minutes until firm. This step is key for a sturdy pop!
- Dip in Color: Fill a clean microwave-safe cup about two-thirds full with your chosen candy melt color (e.g., red). Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring well after each, until completely smooth and melted.
- Coat and Decorate: Carefully dip each chilled Oreo pop into the melted candy, ensuring the cookie is fully covered. Gently tap off any excess candy. Immediately place the coated pop onto a fresh sheet of parchment paper. If you like, sprinkle with your favorite Valentine's Day sprinkles while the candy is still wet.
- Repeat and Enjoy: Let the pops cool completely and firm up (a quick chill can help!). Repeat the dipping and decorating process with your other candy melt colors. Once set, these delightful pops are ready to share and bring smiles!
