Ingredients
Scale
Oreo Pops
- 12 Oreos (Double Stuff)
- 2 cups White Candy Melts
- 2 teaspoons Coconut Oil
- 12 lollipop sticks
- 1/2 cup Black Royal Icing
- Black Edible Marker
Chocolate Bats
- 12 ounces Bittersweet Chocolate
- Paper straws (for attaching bats)
Instructions
- Insert Lollipop Sticks: Gently push lollipop sticks into the center of each Oreo cookie to create a handle for your pops.
- Melt White Chocolate: Mix the coconut oil into the white candy melts to achieve a smooth, dippable consistency and melt gently until fully smooth.
- Dip Oreos: Dip each Oreo into the melted white chocolate until completely coated, ensuring an even, thick layer of chocolate coverage.
- Set Pops: Place the coated Oreos onto a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for about 10 minutes to harden the white chocolate shell.
- Prepare Sticks: Push a paper straw over each lollipop stick to reinforce and decorate the handle.
- Decorate Face: Use the black edible marker to draw Jack Skellington’s mouth and stitches directly onto the hardened white chocolate coating.
- Add Eyes and Nostrils: Using the black royal icing, pipe the eyes and nostrils on the Oreo pops carefully for precise facial features.
- Highlight Mouth: Go over the mouth lines with the black royal icing to enhance the detail, avoiding the stitches to preserve their look.
- Attach Chocolate Bats: Melt the bittersweet chocolate and form bats; attach each bat ornament to the paper straw for added spooky decoration.
- Allow Icing to Set: Let the decorated pops sit at room temperature for 1–2 hours until the royal icing hardens completely. Avoid refrigerating during this step to maintain texture and prevent sweat.
Notes
- For best results, use Double Stuff Oreos to maximize surface area for decoration.
- Work quickly when dipping and decorating to avoid melting the white coating.
- Allow the royal icing to fully harden at room temperature for the clearest and cleanest finish.
- These pops make excellent treats for classroom parties, Halloween celebrations, and festive Christmas events.
