Looking for a cookie that stands out on the holiday tray? These Oreo pops are dipped in white chocolate and covered in red and green sprinkles. They look bakery-fancy, but they’re really just Oreos on a stick! Kids love helping with the sprinkles, and they’re perfect for a cookie exchange, class party or as a little gift.
Tips
- Melt slowly. Microwave the almond bark in short bursts and stir in between. Overheated chocolate gets thick and grainy.
- Glue the stick in. Dip the tip of the stick in melted coating before pressing it into the cream filling, and let it set for a few minutes.
- Use a fork to dip. Lay the pop on a fork and tap it on the edge of the bowl so the extra coating drips off.
- Sprinkle right away while the coating is wet.
Ways to change them up
Dip them in milk or dark chocolate, use mint Oreos, drizzle with a contrasting color, or crush candy canes over the top.
Gifting and storing
Slip each pop in a small cellophane bag and tie it with ribbon. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Ingredients
Method
- Melt the almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 60-, 30- and then 15-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Gently twist the Oreos apart. Dip the tip of a lollipop stick in the coating and press it into the cream about halfway across. Replace the top and let set 8 to 10 minutes.
- Dip each Oreo in the coating, turning to cover completely. Lay it on a fork and tap the fork on the edge of the bowl so the extra drips off.
- Lay the pops on wax or parchment paper and sprinkle right away. Let set at least 10 minutes.
- Store in an airtight container.
