Cuter, on a stick…

Oreo Mummy Pops

That’s what she said…

No really, that is what my girlfriend said ;)

As we sat enjoying our silly, frivolous 12-specification holiday lattes, we got to talking about how everything from dessert shooters to things-on-a-stick seemed to be all the rage.  Then, when I got an email asking if I could whip up a tutorial on something so easy that kids can do it, I decided that Oreo Mummy Pops were just the thing.  “So easy, a kid can do it!”

Halloween Oreo (Mummy) Pops

Ingredients
  • Oreos (I like Newman-O’s)
  • Lollipop Sticks
  • White Chocolate Bark, melted
  • Dark Chocolate, melted
  • Sandwich Bags
  • Styrofoam

Instructions
  1. Split each cookie and gently nudge a lollipop stick dipped in white chocolate into the centers (melt your chocolate either in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30 second waves). Press the two cookie halves together, using the melted chocolate as “glue.” Pop into the fridge to set for 20 minutes.
  2. When they’re ready, bathe each pop into your white chocolate, ensure you cover the sides and tops. Stick each dipped pop onto styrofoam to set.
  3. Spoon your leftover white chocolate and dark chocolate into 2 separate sandwich bags and make a tiny snip at the ends.
  4. Dot a pair of eyes onto each pop and use the white chocolate bag to streak on “bandages.”
  5. Allow this to set as well.

I hear that during the entire month of October, sweets are half as bad for you–haha!

Love,

Your maybe-not-a-good-liar Squishy Monster ^.~

  1. These are adorable! You are very creative!

  2. First, I love Newman O’s!! Hint o’ mint are my favorite! Secondly, I’m totally wrapped up (giggle) in your mummy pops. I can’t wait to try these out with the kids. What a simple treat and I love how the kids will be able to help out with the making of them. I’ve been trying to encourage them to help cook, I feel it’s another one of those lost art forms that I tend to rant about from time to time. I remember my grandmother had a many card catalog boxes full of different recipes that she would always be cooking from. And those recipes were passed down to my Aunts and so on. But nowadays you don’t see much of that still happening. :/ Ugh, I feel sorry for younger generations thinking everything comes right out of a box or in nugget form… But that’s enough of my soap boxing.

    Oh, we finally tested out that chicken sausage kimchi and rice, Facebook’ing the results. I think I used a bit much of the kimchi as the rice soaked up all that spicy goodness. ;) I enjoyed it very much, I think it was a nice addition to the zest of the sausage but it was a lil spicy for the kids. I also needed to chop up the kimchi a bit more as they don’t seem to be a fan of the larger sliced veggies. But all in all it turned out great. I’d blog my results if I knew the first thing about blogging but I’ve yet to venture down that road of social media. I guess it wouldn’t be much different from my random postings on Facebook but I’m willing to bet there’s some sort of code I need to learn in order to make post.

    Thanks for sharing these great sweet-treats!!
    Warmest Regards,

  15. libishski says:

    Things on sticks are also pretty popular down here too. I do like those fried potato twister things on sticks (pretty sure they have it in the states too) – I always buy one if I see a stall selling them at markets, music festivals and expos!

    • The Squishy Monster says:

      I sooo wish they had street vendors here where I live. But, I suppose it’s my saving grace that we don’t because I’d spend way too much time wandering the streets of uptown, then.

  16. Count me in as your newest fan Angie…..You’re one inspiring maven!!!
