Oreo Halloween cookies

Directions.

Gently twist the top of a Oreo cookie and place the lollipop stick on the cream stuff.  Replace the top gently ( easy to break ) and press down.  Continue until you have the desire number of pops.

Place  the pops on a tray with wax paper ,  freezer for 10-15 minutes.

Melt the chocolate disks in a double boiler or use your microwave according to direction on the package. Make sure the chocolate is melted with a ribbon consistency . If too  thick add 1 teaspoon paramount crystals. (  edible wax chips that sells for under $3.00 ). Some mention to use vegetable oil but it does not work for me. I ve tried it.

Hold the pop over the chocolate  bowl and spoon chocolate over the pop. Gently tap your arm that is holding the pop,  for the excess chocolate  to stop dripping.

Dip the cookie pop  into sprinkles  than place on the Styrofoam block to dry.  Or

Place on a Styrofoam block. When pops are dried,  you can start painting faces on the pumpkins .   Pops should be completely dried before covering in a candy bag.
