Elmo Pops!

I made these same pops for Christmas goodies to give away to G's teacher's at school. So I just changed it up a bit and used the candy melts in the color red and added eyes and a nose to make an elmo face.

I started with oreos...

I melted the candy melts in the microwave....

Then you just take a lollipop stick and use the melted candy to put two oreos together. You can let them cool on their own, or to speed things up, pop them in the freezer.
 Orange M&M's were used for the nose
 Candy eyeballs for...you guessed it...the eyes




So here is the end result....I also took a box top from our paper at work and covered it in Elmo wrapping paper and then used a piece of styrofoam to put inside so the pops would stay upright and display nicely.
Voila!
Easy Peasy!



They were a huge hit at the party and everyone thought they were deliciously cute!
The greatest thing about these treats is that you can use them for all kinds of holidays...as I said, I first made them as a Christmas treat, but you could do them for any holiday or event really.
