Black Cat Oreo Pops
When it comes to fun, festive, and no-bake Halloween treats, u003cstrongu003eBlack Cat Oreo Popsu003c/strongu003e take the spotlight. These adorable (and slightly spooky) pops are made by transforming classic Oreo cookies into cute black cats with the help of melted chocolate, candy eyes, and candy decorations.
Ingredients
For the Oreo Pops:
- 12 Oreo cookies (regular or Double Stuf for better stick stability)
- 1 ½ cups (250g) semisweet or black candy melts (for coating)
- 12 lollipop sticks or paper straws
- 24 candy eyes
- 24 small chocolate chips (for ears) or black licorice triangles
- 12 pink candy-coated chocolates (for noses, e.g., mini Mu0026Ms)
Optional Decorations:
- Black sanding sugar or edible glitter (for sparkle)
- Melted white or dark chocolate (for whiskers or details)
Instructions
- Prep the Oreos Carefully twist open each Oreo. Place the end of a lollipop stick into the cream filling. Press gently and replace the Oreo cookie top, sandwiching the stick inside. Chill for 5 minutes to firm.
- Coat the Pops Melt candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Dip each Oreo pop into melted coating, covering completely. Tap gently to remove excess coating.
- Add Decorations Before the coating sets, press on two candy eyes. Attach two chocolate chips (point side up) as ears. Add a pink candy nose in the center. Optional: Use melted chocolate to pipe whiskers or a mouth.
- Chill u0026 Set Place pops upright in a Styrofoam block or lay flat on wax paper. Chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes, until coating is firm.
