Monster Cookie Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter and egg until soft dough forms. Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. On ungreased cookie sheet, place balls 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly. Insert craft stick halfway into each dough ball.

• Attach star tip to each tube of icing; frost cookies. Attach candy corn and candy eyes as desired. Attach plain tip to each tube of icing; pipe mouths and teeth on cookies as desired.

Steps:

• With an electric mixer or by hand, beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, applesauce and vanilla in a bowl. Slowly add in the almond flour and salt. Mix in the chocolate chips. Refrigerate the dough for at least 20 minutes (or overnight) to make it easier to scoop.

Dip tip of 1 lollipop stick about 1/2 inch into melted blue candy and insert stick into 1 cake ball no more than halfway. Repeat. Return to cookie sheet. Refrigerate 5 minutes. Remove from refrigerator a few at a time. Dip cake balls in melted blue candy; tap off excess. Poke opposite end of stick into foam block. Immediately attach 2 candy straw pieces to top of pop for antennae, holding in place until set. Let stand until set.
