Hi Everybody!!! I hope you had fun with the giveaway week but I missed you!! I'm glad to to be back sharing a recipe. If you missed last week, I posted 16 gorgeous handmade giveaways. Please click {HERE}to check out the goods. All the giveaways are still open.
I made oreo pops last week and they were SUPER easy!!! In fact, I will probably forgo cake pops all together from now on because these were so easy and so delicious! These are perfect for a party or special occasion. I love that I didn't have to cook anything! My husband was a little sceptical at first but ended up eating the whole batch:)
What you'll need:
1 package of Oreo cookies
1/2 package of cream cheese (softened)
5 tablespoons Nutella
1 bag of semi sweet chocolate chips
3 ounces white chocolate for decorating
sprinkles, nuts, cocoa powder or powdered sugar for decorating
wooden skewers with the tip cut off or lollipop sticks
Recipe:
Either put the entire bag of oreos in the food processor if you have a big one and make crumbs out of the cookies or place them in a large zip lock bag and smash them with a hammer on a hard surface until fine crumbs.
Next put your cookie crumbs in a bowl with your Nutella and Cream Cheese. Now mix together with your hands. They should be just moist enough to stick together. Next roll them into balls and place on a cookie sheet coated in wax paper. Tip: if you are having trouble rolling them because your hands are so coated in cookie crumbs that they won't stick together simply run your hands under water every few balls that you roll. The few drops of moisture does wonders. You won't have any more trouble forming your balls.
Now, take a small amount of the chocolate chips (about 1/8 of the bag) and melt in the microwave. Now dip your stick into the chocolate then stick it into the oreo truffle. Once you have completed them all put them in the refrigerator or freezer to cool and set. After they are cook you can melt the rest of the chocolate in the microwave and dip the pops and decorate!! Place them on a clean piece of wax paper to set. Store them in the fridge until ready to eat.
