4 MORE adorable and simple to make Christmas oreo pops: a snowman, a Christmas tree, an ornament, and a polar bear.
This is the second installment of Christmas Oreo pops! If you’re looking for the first four (a penguin, snowflake, reindeer, and a candy cane) they were shared yesterday! You can see those by clicking here. 🙂
And today: Snowman, Christmas Tree, Ornament, and a Polar Bear!! Note that each recipe makes about 20-25 Oreo pops so if you want to do a variety of the pops then you’ll want to halve (or third or forth) each of the recipes.
First: a SNOWMAN
In case you can’t find the ingredients in the store, or prefer the convenience of shopping online, here are links to the ingredients I used (click on the words below):
- Black Sugar Pearls
- Rainbow Jimmies Sprinkles (pick out the orange and red ones)
- M&M’s Minis Milk Chocolate Baking Bits
(pick out the orange and red ones)
Snowman Pops
Ingredients
- 1 package of your favorite Oreos
- 1 bag 12 ounces bag white chocolate
- 1 container black pearl sprinkles
- Red & orange jimmie sprinkles I just pick them out of a big tub of funfetti sprinkles
- 48 Miniature Red M&Ms
- Optional: vegetable oil makes the white chocolate easier to work with
- Lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Gently separate the oreos by slowly twisting them apart. (Some will break, it's okay, just try to be gentle)
- Separate the white chocolate into 3 parts (this is to keep it from getting hard while you decorate) and place each section in a microwave safe bowl.
- If using chocolate chips add about 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil (more if needed to thin it even more).
- Melt 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.
- Place the oreo pop on top of a fork over the bowl of melted chocolate. Use a spoon to spoon chocolate over the oreo.
- Shake the fork gently on the edge of the bowl until the chocolate forms an even layer.
- Place on a sheet of parchment paper. Add two pearl sprinkles for eyes, an orange jimmie sprinkle for the nose, and more pearl sprinkles to form a mouth.
- Place 2 miniature M&M's on either side of the oreo to form "earmuffs."
- Connect the earmuffs by using red jimmie sprinkles.
- Allow to harden at room temperature.

Recipe Notes
In the video I add the miniature marshmallows "ears" before dipping in chocolate. You can do this to keep the marshmallows fresh, but I did find it easier to add the marshmallows AFTER dipping in chocolate. If you are making these way in advance though, dip the marshmallows to keep them soft and edible.
