Ingredients for Alien Cookie Pops
- 14 to 16 double-stuffed chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreos
- One 12-ounce bag white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 4 to 6 drops neon green food coloring
- Small or large candy eyeballs, such as Wilton
Directions for Alien Cookie Pops
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Carefully insert a 4-inch lollipop stick into the creme center of each sandwich cookie and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add the white chocolate chips and coconut oil to a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45 seconds, then stir with a rubber spatula. Continue to microwave on high in 15-second intervals, stirring in between each, until just melted and the mixture is smooth. Vigorously stir in the food coloring until the desired color is achieved.
- Working carefully but quickly, hold a cookie by the lollipop stick, place over the bowl and use a small spoon or offset spatula to cover the cookie with the neon green chocolate. Transfer back to the baking sheet and immediately decorate with eyeballs. Repeat with the remaining cookies and neon green chocolate. Let the lollipops set for 30 minutes before serving.

- Halloween – Halloween or Hallowe’en (a contraction of “All Hallows’ evening”), less commonly known as Allhalloween, All Hallows’ Eve, or All Saints’ Eve, is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows’ Day. It begins the observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the departed.One theory holds that many Halloween traditions were influenced by Celtic harvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain, which are believed to have pagan roots. Some go further and suggest that Samhain may have been Christianized as All Hallow’s Day, along with its eve, by the early Church. Other academics believe Halloween began solely as a Christian holiday, being the vigil of All Hallow’s Day. Celebrated in Ireland and Scotland for centuries, Irish and Scottish migrants brought many Halloween customs to North America in the 19th century, and then through American influence, Halloween spread to other countries by the late 20th and early 21st century.Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or the related guising and souling), attending Halloween costume parties, carving pumpkins into jack-o’-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories, and watching horror or Halloween-themed films. For some people, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows’ Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead, remain popular, although it is a secular celebration for others. Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows’ Eve, a tradition reflected in the eating of certain vegetarian foods on this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
- White Chocolate – White chocolate is a chocolate confection, pale ivory in color, made from cocoa butter, sugar, milk solids and sometimes vanilla. White chocolate does not contain cocoa solids, which are found in other types of chocolate, such as milk chocolate and dark chocolate. It is solid at room temperature 25 °C (77 °F) because the melting point of cocoa butter, the only cocoa bean component of white chocolate, is 35 °C (95 °F).
- Dessert – Dessert (/dɪˈzɜːrt/) is a course that concludes a meal. The course consists of sweet foods, such as confections, and possibly a beverage such as dessert wine and liqueur. In some parts of the world, such as much of Central Africa and West Africa, and most parts of China, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal.The term dessert can apply to many confections, such as biscuits, cakes, cookies, custards, gelatins, ice creams, pastries, pies, puddings, macaroons, sweet soups, tarts and fruit salad. Fruit is also commonly found in dessert courses because of its naturally occurring sweetness. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly savory to create desserts.
