Oreo Snowman Cake Pops (Printable)

Festive snowman treats crafted from Oreo crumbs, cream cheese, and white chocolate coating, ideal for holiday celebrations.

# What You'll Need:

→ Oreo Dough

01 - 36 Oreo cookies (about 1 standard package)
02 - 6 oz cream cheese, softened

→ Coating & Decoration

03 - 12 oz white chocolate or candy melts
04 - Mini chocolate chips or black decorating gel (for eyes and buttons)
05 - Orange sprinkles or colored icing (for nose)
06 - Pretzel sticks or colored fondant (for arms and scarves)
07 - Lollipop sticks

# Directions:

01 - Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed.
02 - Mix the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese until a smooth, uniform dough forms.
03 - Roll dough into 32 small balls (approximately 0.75 inches) and 16 slightly larger balls (approximately 1.25 inches).
04 - Stack one small ball atop one large ball, pressing gently to adhere. Insert a lollipop stick through the center of each snowman and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
05 - Freeze the assembled snowmen for 20 to 30 minutes until firm.
06 - Melt white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
07 - Dip each chilled snowman pop into the melted chocolate, turning to coat evenly. Let excess drip off and place upright in a styrofoam block or cup to set.
08 - While coating is tacky, add mini chocolate chips or decorating gel for eyes and buttons, and use orange icing or sprinkles for the nose.
09 - Once set, attach pretzel arms and fondant scarves as desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They look impossibly cute on a platter, and people light up before they even taste them.
  • The Oreo and cream cheese combo is secretly addictive—rich but not heavy.
  • Zero baking required, so you can make them while talking with friends in the kitchen.
02 -
  • If you don't chill them long enough before dipping, they'll slide off the stick or lose their shape—patience here saves frustration later.
  • Room-temperature cream cheese makes all the difference; cold cream cheese won't blend smoothly with the crushed Oreos and you'll end up with lumpy dough.
  • Chocolate that's too hot will melt away your carefully shaped snowmen, so let it cool for a minute after melting before you start dipping.
03 -
  • A styrofoam block is worth finding—it keeps the pops upright and steady while the chocolate sets, and you can reuse it forever.
  • If your decorating gel or icing is too stiff to place neatly, warm it slightly by holding the container in your hand for a minute, which makes it flow better.
