Oreo Lollipops

Today is my daughter's 9th birthday.  Gosh, time sure flies.  Can't believe she is already that old.  Of course I still try to make a special treat for her to take to school.  Gotta enjoy that while I can.  She will be out of elementary school way too soon.  I thought about doing the usual cupcakes or cookies this year, but then decided on these Oreo Lollipops.  The kids were very excited to enjoy something different.  I hope yours enjoy too!! 

(printable recipe) 

1 package of Oreos (I used regular, not Double Stuffed)
1 package vanilla almond bark
24 lollipop sticks
Sprinkles
Waxed paper

• Carefully twist apart all of the Oreo cookies.
• Using one of the pop sticks, gently roll it into the cookie filling making an indentation. 
• Melt the bark in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
• Drizzle a little of the bark in the center of the white cookie filling and then gently press cookie back together.  
• This will cement the cookie back together with the stick inside.  Allow the bark to harden before dipping.  (5 minutes or so)  

• Holding the stick, lower the entire Oreo into the bowl of melted bark, spooning it over the top and sides to cover it completely.
• Allow the excess to drain off and gently place covered Oreo on a piece of waxed paper to harden.  
• Top with confetti sprinkles immediately before bark hardens.

• Don't worry, if some of your Oreos break. Just use the bark as glue to stick them back together.  Let harden completely and follow the steps above to dip and decorate.
