Time 1h

Yield 32 pops.

Number Of Ingredients 9

16 large pink and/or white marshmallows
1 tablespoon sugar
2 packages (10 to 12 ounces each) white baking chips
2 tablespoons shortening
3 to 4 drops red food coloring, optional
32 double-stuffed Oreo cookies
32 Popsicle sticks or craft sticks
64 miniature semisweet chocolate chips (about 1 tablespoon)
64 M&M's miniature baking bits (about 2 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Cut marshmallows into thirds horizontally; cut the center portion of each into four wedges for ears. Roll cut sides of ears in sugar to prevent sticking together. Set ears and remaining portions aside., In a microwave, melt baking chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Stir in food coloring if desired., Twist apart sandwich cookies. Dip the end of a wooden pop stick into melted baking chip mixture and place on a cookie half; replace cookie top. Repeat. Place pops on waxed paper-lined baking sheets; refrigerate for 10 minutes or until set., Reheat baking chip mixture if necessary; dip a pop in mixture and allow excess to drip off. Return to waxed paper-lined baking sheet. While wet, position a marshmallow slice on the cookie for a snout. Add ears on top edge of cookie; hold for a few seconds or until set. Add chocolate chip eyes. Place two baking bits on snout, securing with a dab of baking chip mixture. Repeat. Let stand until set.
