Grinch Oreo Pops

Hello Whipperberry readers!  Jenn here from Clean and Scentsible. I am SO excited to be back here today with these fun Grinch Oreo Pops….

Although I love celebrating all of the holidays, the Christmas season is by far my favorite.  December is always filled with so many activities with family and friends and I love repeating all of our Christmas traditions.  The kids and I look forward to all of the Christmas specials that come on television and The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is always on the top of our list.  This past weekend, we had an early Grinch party with some of the neighborhood kids to start off the Christmas season and these Grinch pops were the hit of the party!

Ingredients

• Oreo cookies
• wooden skewer sticks {or thin sucker sticks}
• green candy melts {I used about half a package for 8 pops}
• banana marshmallows
• black edible ink pen
• large red sprinkle for the nose
• strawberry marshmallows
• mini marshmallows
• toothpick
• white mini cupcake liners

Directions

• Melt chocolate melts in the microwave according to package directions.  Be careful not to overheat.
• Cut banana marshmallows into small almond shapes for the eyes and use the edible ink pen to draw in an eyeball.  
• Insert skewer into the center of the Oreo.
• Spread chocolate around all sides of the cookie.  
• Add eyes and the sprinkle for the nose.
• Place on parchment paper and allow chocolate to harden.
• Spread out cupcake liners, turn it upside down, ad pierce skewer through the center.

NOTE: My original plan was to draw on a mouth with the edible marker, however, it did not draw well over the chocolate and I just decided to skip it.  If you would like to do a mouth, you could try using a toothpick to carve it out of the chocolate before it hardens.

Even if you are not having a party, these pops would be great for a family Grinch night or fun class treat!  And of course, you can't have Oreos without milk! 🙂

If you are looking for more Grinch party ideas, head on over to Clean and Scentsible to see the rest of the party.

"Maybe Christmas", he thought, "Doesn't come from a store.  Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more."

Happy Holidays!
