Peppermint Bark Oreo Pops

Ingredients

Scale
  • Three 4oz bars of white chocolate (I used Bakers)
  • About 1520 peppermint candies
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1620 skinny Popsicle sticks

Instructions

  1. Finely chop the white chocolate
  2. Fill a medium pot with a few inches of water, and place a heat proof bowl (glass works) inside it to make a double boiler
  3. The water shouldn’t be touching the bottom of the bowl
  4. Bring the water to a simmer
  5. Add the chocolate to the bowl
  6. Stir the chocolate often until it is completely melted and smooth
  7. Meanwhile, place the peppermint candies in a ziplock bag and, using a rolling pin (or a pan), crush the candies until you have peppermint dust mixed with very small peppermint pieces
  8. Once your chocolate is melted, stir in the peppermint extract
  9. For the Oreos, stick a skinny Popsicle stick into the center of each one, gently squeezing each side as you do so that it doesn’t pop open
  10. Push the stick into the Oreo a little bit, but not enough so that it pops through the top
  11. Prep 16 Oreos (if you have extra chocolate at the end, you can prep a few more)
  12. Place a sheet of parchment or wax paper onto a baking sheet
  13. Dip the Oreos into the white chocolate until they are completely covered, using a spoon to help cover the whole cookie in chocolate
  14. Towards the middle of this process, I wasn’t dipping the Oreos because the chocolate wasn’t deep enough. I just held the Oreo down in the bowl and spooned chocolate onto it until it was sufficiently coated
  15. Place the Oreos onto the parchment/wax paper once they are dipped
  16. After all the Oreos are finished, sprinkle a little bit of peppermint on top of each one
  17. You can place these in the freezer or fridge to help the chocolate set faster if you want
