One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is making themed desserts! You can make themed desserts for any season or holiday (like pumpkin flavored for fall, and heart shaped for Valentine’s Day), but with winter and Christmas there are dozens of characters you can choose to work with! And what’s a more iconic Christmas character than Santa Claus! I’m planning on hosting a Christmas party for my kids and their friends when it’s a bit closer to the holiday, so I wanted to start working out possible desserts now. This one is definitely going on the the menu because not only are they delicious, but they’re so easy to make! Here’s how to make Santa Oreo Pops!

By using store-bought Oreos as a base, this becomes a quick, easy, and inexpensive no-bake Christmas dessert! On top of that, it’s really easy to make multiple copies of these pops. So you can whip up a batch for your family or for a whole holiday party without any trouble!
Santa Oreo Pops- An Easy Christmas Dessert Recipe
Ingredients
12 oz white chocolate melting candy
Lollipop sticks
Oreos
Pink M&M’s
1 cup coconut flakes
Red gel icing
Mini marshmallows
Candy eyes
Directions
1. Lay out a piece of parchment paper. Place your chocolate melting candy in a microwave safe bowl.
2. Heat your chocolate on 50% power for 2-3 minutes, stopping and stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
3. Dip the end of your lollipop sticks into the melted chocolate, open an Oreo, place your stick inside, and sandwich the Oreo back together.
4. Let your Oreos set for a couple minutes, then dip them in your melted chocolate, making sure each side is covered.
5. Let the excess chocolate drop off and place the covered Oreos onto your parchment paper.
6. Carefully place one pink M&M on each side of the cookie and two candy eyes in the middle, slightly above the pink M&Ms.
7. Add a pinch of coconut flakes to the bottom half of the Oreos for Santa’s beard.
8. Let your Oreos harden for about 30 minutes.
9. Use your red gel icing to color the top half of the Oreo red for the hat, and place a mini marshmallow on top for the hat’s pom pom.
10. Just dab a dot of red icing in the center for a nose and your Santa Oreo pops are finished!
