Cookies And Cream Cake Pop Recipe
Cookies and Cream Cake Pops are made by mixing crumbled vanilla cake, crushed Oreo cookies, cream cheese, and buttercream, then shaping into balls and coating in melted chocolate. These bite sized treats are fun to make, full of flavour, and perfect for sharing. Decorated with crushed cookies, they offer a creamy, crunchy texture and can be stored easily for days or served fresh at gatherings.
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Rubber spatula or spoon
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Microwave safe bowl or double boiler
- Cake pop sticks
- Styrofoam block or stand (for drying)
Ingredients
- 20 Oreo cookies or similar chocolate sandwich cookies
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 bag white chocolate chips
- 2 bags semi sweet chocolate chips
- 4 cups vanilla cake crumbled
- ½ cup vanilla butter cream frosting
- Cake pop sticks about 24–30 sticks
Instructions
Crush The Cookies
- Grab about 20 Oreo cookies and crush them into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or place them in a sealed bag and smash them with a rolling pin.
Make The Dough
- In a big bowl, mix the crushed Oreo with softened cream cheese, crumbled vanilla cake, and a bit of vanilla buttercream. Stir it all together until it forms a soft, doughy mix.
Shape Into Balls
- Scoop out some of the mixture and roll it into small balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches wide. Set them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Add The Sticks
- Melt a little bit of chocolate white or semi sweet both work. Dip the tip of each stick into the melted chocolate, then push it halfway into each cake ball. This helps keep the stick in place.
Chill The Balls
- Put the cake pops in the fridge for at least an hour, or pop them in the freezer for 20–30 minutes. They should be nice and firm before you coat them.
Melt The Coating
- Melt your choice of white or semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl or over a double boiler until smooth.
Dip And Coat
- Carefully dip each cold cake pop into the melted chocolate. Let the extra chocolate drip off.
Decorate
- While the coating is still wet, roll each pop in more crushed Oreo or sprinkle some on top.
Let Them Set
- Stick the cake pops upright in a block of Styrofoam or a cake pop stand. Let the chocolate harden completely.
Ready To Eat Or Save
- You can serve them right away, or keep them in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
