Ingredients for Halloween Oreo Pops

Double stuffed Oreos – Double stuffed Oreos are a little thicker than normal Oreos so they’ll be much easier to dip in chocolate.
Crisco shortening – Shortening will help thin out the melted wafers making it easier to dip an Oreo into.
White chocolate melting wafers – Melted white chocolate will act as a “glue” to hold the cake pop stick in the Oreo filling.
Colored melting wafers – I used purple, green, and orange colored melting wafers but you can use any colors you want. Look at your local craft store for the largest variety to choose from!
Cake pop sticks – If you can’t find cake pop sticks, popsicle sticks are a great replacement.
Colored jimmy sprinkles – I like to use matching sprinkles to whatever color melting candy I chose, but feel free to use different colors.
Candy eyes – If you have difficulty finding candy eyes, you can also purchase them online! But check you local hobby store first.

How to Make Monster Oreo Pops

To begin, grab a cake pop stick and poke a hole into the filling your Oreo cookies. The hole needs to be about ½ inch deep. Be careful not to break the cookies during this step and don’t leave the stick in the filling.

Next, place the white chocolate into a microwave safe bowl. Heat on 50% power for one minute, then stir the chocolate and place it back in the microwave. Heat in 30 second intervals until it is a smooth and creamy consistency. Do not over heat or the chocolate will seize.

Take the tip of each cake pop stick and dip it into the melted chocolate. Immediately place the chocolate tip into the the holes of the Oreos. Allow the Oreos to set for a minute, this will become a kind of “glue” that will secure the stick in the cookie.

With the Cake Pop Sticks, put a hole in the Filling of the oreo very carefully.

After you’ve done that, place the colored melting wafers in microwave safe containers deep enough for dipping. Heat on 50% power for one minute, then stir with a fork and add 1 tablespoon of Crisco shortening to each bowl.

Microwave the wafers again in 30 second increments, stirring well in between. Heat the wafers until they have a consistency like salad dressing and are smooth and silky.

Dip each Oreo into the melted candy, ensuring you cover the whole cookie and allow excess to drip.

Before the chocolate sets, add sprinkles and candy eyes to the monsters.

Place each completed Oreo monster onto a cake pop stand to stay upright. Allow the pops to set in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

How to Store Leftover Halloween Oreo Pops

You can store Oreo pops at room temperature, in the fridge, or in the freezer. Either wrap them individually in cellophane or place them in a plastic bag. Or, store multiple Oreo monsters in an airtight container with parchment paper between the layers.

Oreo pops stored at room temperature will last for about 3 days. Keep them in a cool area, away from heat.

FRIDGE: Store in the fridge for up to a week. Avoid moving the pops back and forth from room temp to the refrigerator as the constant change in temperature could cause them to sweat.

FREEZER: You can freeze these too! They will last for 2 months in the freezer. Freeze individually, or in batches with parchment paper between layers.

Can I use different cookies?

I wouldn’t recommend using anything larger than an Oreo, but you can definitely try other cookies. The small chips ahoy cookies could work. You can also use the different flavors of Oreos! Golden Oreos would taste delicious.

Pro Tips!

If your chocolate is really hot, the candy eyes and sprinkles may immediately fall off or slide down. If this happens, just allow the monsters to rest upright until the chocolate hardens enough to support the decorations. Use the rim of a glass!
Having trouble dipping the Oreos in chocolate? Add ½ tablespoon more of Crisco to the chocolate and return it too the microwave. Microwave until it’s thinned out and you are able to dip the Oreos.
Add different sized eyes to your monsters for the most silly and fun look!

Spooky season is upon us, so celebrate well with the adorable treats!
