1packageof your favorite Oreos or sandwich cookies(the video shows birthday cake Oreos!)
1bag (12 ounces)white chocolate chips
1bagSpring or plain M&Ms
Optional: vegetable oil makes the white chocolate easier to work with
Lollipop sticks
Instructions
Prepare a few large sheet pans by lining them with parchment paper and set aside. Gently separate the oreos by slowly twisting them apart. (Some will break, it's okay.)
Separate the white chocolate into 3 parts (this is to keep it from getting hard while you decorate) and place each batch in a microwave-safe bowl. Add about 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil (add more later if needed to thin the chocolate so it can coat the cookie easily and smoothly.)
Melt the first bowl in 20 second bursts in the microwave (Microwave 20 seconds, stir 20 seconds, etc.)
Be patient when melting and stir well in between bursts to avoid burning the chocolate.
Dip one end of the lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and press that side into the cream side of the oreo.
Place the other half of the oreo on top and gently press and hold.
Using a spoon over the bowl of melted chocolate, spoon the melted chocolate over the cookie. Gently tap the cookie on the bowl to remove excess chocolate. Swipe the cookie on the edge of the bowl to again remove excess chocolate.
Transfer the cookie pops to the prepared sheet pan and allow the chocolate to harden. Repeat for all the cookie pops using all of the chocolate but about 1/4 cup.
When the chocolate is hardened, use the last 1/4 cup of white chocolate (melted) to attach the M&M's. Touch the back of each M&M with white chocolate and press it into the cookie. (I like to add the M&Ms to the hardened cookies so they don't "sink" into the melted white chocolate and pop up on the surface instead.)
Allow to harden at room temperature. Best enjoyed within 3 days.
