Cookie lollipops are a little different than the norm, but kids love them. This recipe for Mystery Halloween Cookie Pops is a perfect timesaver for a last-minute Halloween treat. All you need is a microwave, a freezer, and a small chunk of time to let the melted chocolate harden.
Ingredients:
- 1 (12 oz.) package vanilla baking chips
- 2 Tablespoons solid shortening, divided
- Orange food coloring
- 1 (16 oz.) package cream-filled chocolate cookies
- 32 popsicle sticks
- 1 (6 oz.) package semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
Place the vanilla baking chips and 1 Tablespoon of shortening together in a microwave-safe bowl. Place in the microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir until smooth. If the chips haven't melted enough, return the bowl to the microwave for 30 seconds and then stir again until smooth. Add the food coloring and stir until you reach the desired color of orange.
Remove the tops off all the cookies. Dip each popsicle stick in the melted chip mixture and place one on each cookie half. Return the tops to the cookies and place them on a sheet of waxed paper. Place the cookies in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Reheat the chip mixture for 15 seconds in the microwave if it has hardened. Dip each of the cookie pops into the melted chocolate covering the cooking well and allow any excess to drip back into the bowl. Return the cookies to the wax paper and freeze for 30 minutes or until set.
Place the chocolate chips and remaining shortening into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute then stir until smooth. Drizzle the mixture over each of the cookie pops.
Makes 32 lollipops.
