Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 pops
Ingredients
- 12 Oreo cookies
- 12 lollipop sticks
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup edible eyes
Instructions
- Carefully twist apart each Oreo cookie, separating the two chocolate wafers with the cream filling intact.
- Gently insert a lollipop stick into the cream filling of each cookie half, pressing carefully to ensure it's securely embedded without breaking the cookie.
- Place the prepared Oreo cookie pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet and transfer to the freezer for 10 minutes to help them firm up and make dipping easier.
- Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each interval until smooth and completely melted.
- Remove the Oreo pops from the freezer and carefully dip each one into the melted white chocolate, using a spoon to help coat the entire surface evenly.
- Gently tap the lollipop stick on the bowl's edge to remove excess chocolate and create a smooth coating.
- Place the white-chocolate-covered Oreo pops back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Before the chocolate sets, carefully place two mini chocolate chips as ears and attach the edible eyes to create the polar bear face.
- Refrigerate the Oreo Polar Bear Pops for 5-10 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to completely set and harden.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Tips
- • Ensure your white chocolate melts smoothly by using low, consistent microwave heat and stirring frequently. • Freeze the Oreo cookies briefly before dipping to prevent crumbling and make chocolate coating easier. • Use a toothpick to precisely place mini chocolate chip ears and edible eyes for the most precise polar bear faces. • Work quickly when decorating to prevent the chocolate from setting before you can add facial features. • For a cleaner look, use a small spoon or offset spatula to help evenly coat the Oreo pops with white chocolate. • If you don't have edible eyes, you can use white chocolate and mini chocolate chips to create eyes manually. • Keep your pops chilled until serving to maintain their adorable shape and prevent chocolate from melting.
