Passion Pops!

I saw these on a friends blog and HAD to try them, they just looked so delicious and fun to make...and I was not mistaken! They are an easy activity to do with the kids, have endless possibilities, and you can make as many or as little as you want.

Go ahead, give them a try!


INGREDIENTS: Vanilla Wafers, candies (Reese's, caramels, Rolo's, possibilities are endless!), sprinkles, lollipop sticks, candy melts or choc. chips, wax paper


DIRECTIONS: melt the candies in a bowl, stir until smooth, spoon small amount on a vanilla wafer, place lollipop stick in center, then sandwich another wafer on top, place tray of them in fridge/freezer for 5-10 minutes until solid. Dip pops in chocolate, decorate with sprinkles, place on wax paper then allow to harden....

...last but not least, ENJOY!

I am excited to have found these, there are so many possibilities with them! You can pick different candies to melt, or even melt chocolate chips and peanut butter to do the same effect of Reeses. You can buy different colors of the candy melts (Wilton brand, found in the cake decorating section at Walmart or Target) and sprinkles for different holidays or celebrations. They would be great party favors or treats to bring to a friend for no reason at all! Here is the link where my friend found this wonderful recipe:
