Ingredients

Scale

Oreos

  • 15 Oreos

Coating

  • 12 ounces vibrant green candy melts
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Decoration

  • Large red heart sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the Oreo pops from sticking and to make cleanup easier.
  2. Separate Oreos: Carefully pull one side of each Oreo off and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet with the exposed filling side up.
  3. Melt candy melts: Place the candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for about 3 minutes, stirring every 15-30 seconds to prevent burning, until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Add coconut oil: Stir the tablespoon of coconut oil into the melted candy to make the coating more fluid and easier to work with.
  5. Insert sticks: Dip each sucker stick about half an inch into the melted candy, then press it gently into the center of the Oreo filling so it is secure. Reassemble the Oreo by placing the top back on.
  6. Chill for setting: Place the Oreos with sticks on the baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes until the sticks are firmly set.
  7. Dip Oreos: Pour the melted candy into a tall cup. Dip each Oreo pop fully into the candy melt coating, ensuring it is completely covered.
  8. Remove excess coating: Lightly tap the stick against the side of the cup to remove excess candy melts. Then, tap the bare bottom of the stick on the counter to smooth and flatten the chocolate coating.
  9. Chill again: Place the dipped Oreo pops back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for 10 minutes or until the coating has hardened.
  10. Prepare drizzle: Transfer the remaining melted candy to a piping bag or a small plastic bag and snip a tiny corner at a 45-degree angle for controlled drizzling.
  11. Decorate Oreos: Drizzle the candy over each Oreo pop in a decorative pattern. Immediately press a large red heart sprinkle in the upper-right corner of each Oreo for a festive touch.
  12. Final chill: Chill the decorated Oreo pops for an additional 5 minutes or until the drizzle has hardened. Serve and enjoy your Grinch-inspired holiday treats!

Notes

  • Use a tall cup for dipping to help fully submerge the Oreo pops easily.
  • Ensure the candy melts are fully melted and smooth before dipping to get an even coating.
  • If candy melts start to thicken, reheat in short bursts and stir to maintain a workable consistency.
  • Store the assembled Oreo pops in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh up to 3 days.
  • For an alternative to coconut oil, you can use vegetable shortening to thin the candy melts.
