For a complete visual guide, watch the full tutorial for making these Spider Oreo Pops and other Halloween designs here: Halloween Oreo Pops Video Tutorial

• 1 package Oreos (use your favorite flavor for delicious results!)
• 1 (12-ounce) bag milk chocolate chips
• 48 candy eyeballs (for those expressive spider eyes!)
• 1 bag string black licorice laces (perfect for spider legs)
• 1-1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil (or shortening; optional, this helps make the chocolate smoother and easier to work with)
• Lollipop sticks (for holding your pops!)

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Begin by lining a large sheet pan with parchment paper. This vital step prevents your delicate Oreo pops from sticking and allows for easy removal once they’ve hardened. Next, gently separate each Oreo cookie by slowly twisting the halves apart. While some breakage is inevitable, try to be as gentle as possible to keep the cream filling intact on one side.
2. Melt the Chocolate in Batches: Divide your milk chocolate chips into three separate microwave-safe bowls. This method is a crucial trick to prevent the chocolate from hardening too quickly as you’re in the midst of decorating, ensuring a smooth and consistent coating throughout your process.
3. Achieve Smooth Consistency: For a smoother, more manageable dipping consistency, you can optionally add about 1/2 teaspoon of vegetable oil or shortening to each bowl of chocolate chips. If you desire an even thinner coating for a delicate finish, feel free to add a little more oil, a tiny bit at a time.
4. Careful Melting Process: Melt the chocolate in your microwave using short 20-second bursts. After each burst, stir the chocolate thoroughly for an additional 20 seconds. This patient approach is key to preventing the chocolate from burning, which can lead to a grainy, unusable texture.
5. Assemble the Spider Base: Dip one end of a lollipop stick into the melted chocolate. Immediately press this chocolate-dipped end firmly into the cream filling side of an Oreo half. Next, cut the black licorice laces into eight even pieces, each approximately an inch long. Carefully press four of these cut licorice pieces into the cream filling on the right side of the Oreo, and the remaining four into the left side, forming the distinct spider legs.
6. Secure the Oreo: Place the other half of the Oreo cookie directly on top of the assembled side, gently pressing and holding it in place. Allow the chocolate to set slightly, which will secure both the stick and the licorice legs firmly within the cookie sandwich. Let this assembly harden completely.
7. Coat with Chocolate: Once the initial assembly has hardened, carefully spoon melted chocolate evenly over the entire top of the Oreo. Be mindful to coat the cookie thoroughly while trying to avoid excessive chocolate on the licorice legs, though a little overlap is perfectly fine and adds to the rustic charm.
8. Add the Eyes: Immediately after coating with chocolate, gently place two candy eyes onto the still-wet melted chocolate on the top of the Oreo. This will instantly bring your spider to life! Transfer the finished (but still wet) Oreo pops onto your prepared parchment-lined tray. Remember, using parchment paper is essential here for easy removal once they’re fully set.
9. Final Set: Allow the Spider Oreo Pops to harden completely at room temperature. The setting time can vary based on the ambient temperature of your room. For a quicker set, you can carefully place them in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes.

Nutrition Information (Approximate)

• 1 package Oreos (choose your favorite flavor!)
• 1 (12-ounce) bag white chocolate chips
• Black decorating gel (for drawing the skeletal features)
• 1-1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil (or shortening; optional, for a smoother, more fluid chocolate)
• Lollipop sticks (for holding your ghostly pops!)

1. Prepare Your Tray and Oreos: Begin by lining a large sheet pan with parchment paper, ensuring a non-stick surface for your pops. Carefully twist and separate each Oreo cookie. Some cookies may break, which is perfectly normal, so handle them gently to preserve as much cream filling on one half as possible.
2. Portion the White Chocolate: Divide your white chocolate chips into three separate microwave-safe bowls. This strategic division helps prevent the chocolate from hardening too quickly, allowing you ample time to dip and decorate each pop with ease.
3. Thin the Chocolate (Optional): For a smoother, more flowing chocolate consistency that’s ideal for dipping, consider adding about 1/2 teaspoon of vegetable oil or shortening to each bowl. Adjust this amount as needed to achieve your desired level of thinness, stirring well after each addition.
4. Melt Carefully: Melt the white chocolate in the microwave using short 20-second bursts. Stir the chocolate thoroughly for 20 seconds between each burst. This patient approach is crucial to prevent the white chocolate from burning, which can lead to a grainy or clumpy texture.
5. Assemble the Pop: Dip one end of a lollipop stick into the melted white chocolate. Immediately press this chocolate-dipped end firmly into the cream-filled side of an Oreo half. Place the other Oreo half directly on top, pressing gently to secure both the cookie and the stick together. Allow this assembly to harden completely.
6. Coat Evenly: Once the cookie and stick are secured, spoon the melted white chocolate evenly over the entire Oreo pop. Gently tap the lollipop stick against the edge of the bowl. This helps the chocolate spread smoothly and evenly coat the cookie, creating a flawless white base. You may opt for a second coat if you desire a perfectly opaque white finish.
7. Harden the Coating: Transfer the white-chocolate coated Oreo pops onto your prepared parchment-lined tray. Let them harden completely at room temperature. Rushing this step by placing them in the fridge too soon can sometimes lead to condensation, so room temperature setting is often best.
8. Draw the Skeleton Face: After the white chocolate has fully hardened, it’s time to bring your skeleton to life! Use the black decorating gel to meticulously draw the skeleton’s features. Start with two large round eye sockets, then add two small vertical lines for the “nose,” and finally, a half-moon shape for the mouth. Complete the mouth by drawing small vertical lines through it to simulate teeth, as clearly shown in the accompanying picture and video. For a firm set, briefly place the decorated pops in the fridge or freezer before arranging them in a display stand or serving.

• 1 package Oreos (choose your favorite flavor to build your monster!)
• 1 (12-ounce) bag green candy melts (essential for Frankenstein’s signature green hue)
• 24 pretzel sticks (for those iconic neck bolts)
• 48 candy eyeballs (for his expressive, slightly startled gaze)
• Green jimmie sprinkles (to create his “hair”)
• 1-1/2 to 3 teaspoons vegetable oil (or shortening; optional, makes the candy melts easier to work with for a smoother finish)
• Lollipop sticks (to turn your monster into a pop!)

1. Prep Your Station: Begin by lining a large sheet pan with parchment paper to ensure your pops don’t stick. Gently separate each Oreo cookie by slowly twisting the halves apart. Exercise care, as some cookies may break, but don’t worry – you can still use the cream-filled halves.
2. Divide Candy Melts: Separate your green candy melts into three distinct microwave-safe bowls. This method is vital to prevent the candy melts from hardening too quickly, allowing you sufficient time for decorating each batch.
3. Thinning the Melts (Optional): Optionally, add about 1/2 to 1 full teaspoon of vegetable oil or shortening to each bowl of candy melts. This helps thin them out, making them much easier to work with for a smooth, even coating. Add more oil if a thinner consistency is desired, stirring well after each addition.
4. Melt with Care: Melt the candy melts in your microwave using precise 20-second bursts. After each burst, stir the candy melts thoroughly for 20 seconds. Patience is paramount here to avoid overheating and burning the candy melts, which can spoil their texture.
5. Assemble Frankenstein’s Head: Dip one end of a lollipop stick into the melted green candy melts and immediately press that side into the cream-filled side of an Oreo half. Next, gently press a pretzel stick into the top of the cream on the Oreo to create Frankenstein’s iconic “neck bolt.”
6. Secure the Cookie: Carefully place the other half of the Oreo on top, gently pressing and holding it until the candy melts set slightly, securing both the stick and the pretzel. Allow this initial assembly to harden completely.
7. Coat with Green: Spoon the melted green candy melts evenly over the entire Oreo pop, being cautious to avoid coating the pretzel stick too heavily (a light coating is fine). Gently tap the Oreo pop against the edge of the bowl. This helps the candy melts spread smoothly and uniformly, covering the cookie completely.
8. Add Features: While the green candy melts are still wet, press two candy eyes onto the front of the Oreo pop. Immediately after, generously sprinkle green Jimmie sprinkles just above the eyes to cleverly create Frankenstein’s distinctive “hair.”
9. Harden Completely: Transfer the newly decorated Frankenstein Oreo pops to your prepared parchment-lined pan. Allow them to harden completely at room temperature. This step is essential to ensure all the decorations are fully set and won’t smudge.
10. Draw His Smile: Once the candy melts have fully hardened, use the black edible gel to draw a distinctive, slightly crooked “smile” on your Frankenstein pops. This adds character and completes his classic look. For the best results and to ensure the gel sets firmly, briefly place the pops in the fridge or freezer before arranging them on a display stand or serving.
