Ingredients

  • Lofthouse Sugar Cookies - Hot Cocoa Flavored
  • 1 to 2 tablespoon chocolate frosting
  • 12 lollipop sticks
  • 1, 14 oz bag of chocolate candy coating Wilotns/Make N' Mold/CandiQuick, etc
  • PEEPS
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Place the cookies into your food processor. Grind up the cookies to a fine crumb. Add about a tablespoon of frosting to the crumbs and pulse the mixture. You'll see it start to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Now, take a handful of the mixture, and give it a squeeze. If if sticks together it's good to go. If it crumbles and falls apart, add a LITTLE bit more frosting. You can always add more frosting, but you can't take it out once it's in. (And you don't want mushy pops with too much frosting).
  • If you're happy with the consistency, then roll a handful to create a ball. Don't worry if they aren't perfect. Mine weren't.
  • Place the rolled cookie balls into the fridge while you melt your chocolate and get your supplies ready.
  • Melt the chocolate candy coating in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute. Stir it up then place it back in the microwave at 70% power for 45 seconds. This timing always works for me. After stirring it to melt it all, it's always smooth.
  • Dip the lollipop stick into the chocolate then insert them halfway into the cookie balls. Complete adding all the sticks to the pops.
  • Dip the cookie ball into chocolate, straight up and down, then tap off the excess. Add some sprinkles and top it with a PEEPS. Stand it up to dry and complete all of the pops.
