I came up with this the other day. Well, I can't say for sure that no one else has ever achieved the greatness that I call "Oreo Pops", but what I mean is that this idea is without a recipe or inspiration from someone else. Maybe it's because I'm attracted to all the colors that Wilton Candy Melts come in. When I saw orange at the store, I immediately thought of pumpkins and I needed something round to go with them. Hello Oreos!
They are fairly easy. Just stick a lollipop stick in the frosting of a double stuff oreo cookie. Melt the candy melts according to the direction on the package. I also add about 1-2 teaspoons of shortening to thin the melts out a bit. I think it helps with the dipping. Never use water to thin out candy melts. Vegetable oil and shortening are your best options. I stuck mine in an empty box to stand upright while they dried.
Then, I took an edible marker to draw Jack o'Lantern faces on the Oreo Pops. I got tired of drawing faces, so I wrote words like "boo" and "eek" on a few of them. Clever, I know.
Oreo Pops. They're spooktacular!
