Ingredients
1– 14.3 oz package Oreo Cookies-double stuffed
2 bags Wilton Candy Melts- pure white* or Almond Bark
1 bag each Wilton Candy Melts orange, red, green, and black- or colors you desire the snowman hat to be.
Mini red and green M & M’s
Snowflake confectionery decor or decor desired to decorate the hats
toothpicks, pop sticks, pop stick bags, striped 1/4″ wide ribbon for scarf, scissors
piece of styrofoam to hold sticks after coating
*Almond Bark will have a thin consistency but easier to coat cookies while the melts will be thicker and much brighter in color.
Instructions
- Prepare baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. Place assorted color of melts in separate custard cups to melt, assemble remaining tools and ingredients and set aside.
- Melt one bag white candy melts or bark in microwave for 25 seconds at a time until melted. (keep your melts warm by placing a bowl of hot water under neath the bowl with the melted candy) do not allow water to come in contact with the candy.
- Separate cookies in half, leaving filling on one side of cookie only. Dip one end of pop stick in melted candy and insert on filling side of open cookie. This is the”glue” that will keep the stick in place while dipping.
- Add a small dollop of coating /melt to the other half of cookie. Sandwich the cookies with stick together and allow to harden 10 minutes before dipping.
- Dip cookies in white or bark, coat both sides. Place cookie pop on parchment lined baking sheet. Can place in refrigerator until hardened. If you have candy melt feet around the cookie, you can remove that with a sharp knife after the cookie hardens.
- Snowman Details: Hat-melt red and green melts separately in custard cup, dip one corner into one or the other color to coat top side of head. Add red or green Mini M & M to finish the stocking hat.
- Nose: melt 6 wafers of orange melts separately in custard cup, stir to smooth. Using toothpick, pick up a small amount of orange melt and dot center of cookie pop for nose. Draw out pick to make the nose curl upward, like a carrot shape. Melts will harden fast.
- Eyes and Mouth- Melt 6 wafers of black candy melts in custard cup. Stir until smooth. Using toothpick, pick up small amount of melt and dot two eyes and several dots for mouth. Connect dots for mouth.
- Snowflake on Hat- to attach snowflake, whatever color your hat is, red or green , use a toothpick and dot the hat with the colored melt, than attach the confectionery snowflake to one side.
- Scarf- cut 6″ of striped ribbon length to tie around packaged pop or pop stick with out the package.
- To present these pops as gifts, after hardened, insert pops into pop bag and tie with striped ribbon.
