Can You Make Cake Pops With Cookies

Cookie Dough Pops are like cake pops, only much easier to make (and in this blogger’s opinion, much tastier, too!). I’ll show you how to make this safe-to-eat edible cookie dough with no eggs and with the option to heat treat your flour (recommended if you intend to serve these to others) for a fun and unique snack!

It’s hard to believe how far this website has come in the past three years, and I have every single one of you who is reading this today to thank for it.

So, sincerely, from the very bottom of my heart,  THANK YOU.  Thanks to you baking, photographing, writing, and videoing for Sugar Spun Run has become my full time job (!!!), and I am so, so grateful.

Today I’m sharing these cookie dough pops as a token of my gratitude, and I think they’re a great choice for celebrating three years of cookie dough and sprinkles.

Cookie Dough Pops are similar to cake pops in their appearance, but they’re quite simple to make.  The first thing you’ll want to do is prepare your cookie dough, roll it into balls, and then chill it.

Chilling the dough is important so that the dough doesn’t melt when you dip it into your chocolate, but you don’t want the cookie dough to be

Cold, or it can cause the chocolate to crack as it sets (I discovered this issue when I made my Oreo balls!).

For dipping,  and to help the cookie dough adhere to it you should dip each stick just about half an inch into your melted chocolate before spearing your cookie dough.

I recommend using melting wafers (you can use regular chocolate or white chocolate!) for this recipe because the chocolate coats smoothly and solidifies quickly, but you still will need a place to set your cookie dough pops while the chocolate hardens.

Ideally you shouldn’t lay them down on wax paper or a cooling rack because they’ll end up with uneven sides or unattractive marks in the chocolate, so I recommend using a small box or piece of styrofoam and using a knife to make small holes over the surface and then standing your cake pops up in the prepared holes while the chocolate sets.

Do make sure that whatever you are using will actually support the cookie dough pops once you’ve added the heavy cookie dough to the end of the sticks!

The first time I did this, my shoebox refused to hold the pops and they all fell on top of each other, which was so frustrating, to say the least!!

Once more very important thing to note: while these cookie dough pops are made egg free, there have been E. coli outbreaks linked to consuming raw flour. Because of this, I recommend you heat treat your flour, and instructions for doing so can be found in my edible cookie dough post and more information can be found here .

Oreo Cake Balls

Oreo Cake balls are all the things we love about Oreo cookies in a bite-sized, super convenient ball. Made of crushed Oreo cookies mixed with cream cheese, the insides of these balls are sweet, chocolaty, and creamy. The outsides are made with melted candy, which gives them a tasty hard shell. There’s something about biting through the candy outside to the moist cake inside that is just… yum. The best part is that you don’t have to feel so guilty eating them because these Oreo Cake balls are only 130 calories per serving.

If you want to make these look more elegant, you can turn them easily into oreo cake pops! And make sure to check out my ultimate cake pop making guide to perfect them from the first try!

Candy melts and chocolate chips have similar, but very different, flavors. And they also melt differently. If you prefer to use chocolate chips, do this by warming them in a microwave-safe bowl at 20-second intervals. Always be cautious not to overheat and scorch the chocolate.

The easiest way to crush the Oreos for these cake balls is by pulsing them in a food processor on high until they are a powder. If you don’t have a food processor, then you can also place them in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

Because these Oreo Cake balls contain cream cheese, they need to be refrigerated. This will also keep them from softening too much at room temperature. Place them in an airtight container and they will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month.

These Oreo cake balls can be made about 3 weeks in advance if they are placed in an airtight container. Since you can freeze them, you can make them up to 2 months in advance, but do not dip them into the melted candy until closer to the day you want to use them. Store them in an airtight container or ziplock bag in the freezer, separated by wax paper to avoid them sticking to each other.
