Ingredients
Base
- Classic Oreo cookies (quantity as desired)
- Lollipop sticks (one per Oreo)
Coating
- White candy melts (enough to fully dip all Oreo pops)
- Red or pink sprinkles (for decoration)
Optional
- Milk or dark chocolate (for drizzle)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Lay out parchment paper on a baking tray or flat surface. Gently insert a lollipop stick into the cream filling of each Oreo, making sure it is secure but does not break the cookie.
- Melt the Candy Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white candy melts in 30-second increments. Stir thoroughly after each interval until the coating is smooth and creamy.
- Dip the Oreo Pops: Hold each Oreo pop by the stick and dip it fully into the melted candy coating. Allow any excess coating to drip off, then place the pops on the parchment paper.
- Decorate Quickly: Before the coating sets, sprinkle the Oreo pops with Valentine’s-themed sprinkles or any other desired decorations to personalize each treat.
- Add Drizzles or Final Touches: Once the coating has slightly hardened, melt some milk or dark chocolate and use a piping bag or the corner of a ziplock bag to drizzle fine lines over the pops for an elegant finish.
Notes
- Keep candy melts dry to avoid seizing; ensure all tools and Oreos are dry before use.
- Use good-quality candy melts for smooth, beautiful coatings.
- Work in a cool environment to help the coating set faster and prevent melting during decoration.
- Insert lollipop sticks gently but firmly to avoid breaking the Oreo cream center.
- Chill the pops briefly in the fridge for about 10 minutes between dipping and decorating steps to speed up hardening.
