A couple of weeks ago we had a work pot luck baby shower to celebrate the impending arrival of my coworkers first child. I had the morning free the day before the baby shower and took the opportunity to get a little creative and make Oreo baby shower cookies as a cute baby shower dessert idea to share with everyone. I needed something that would travel well as I would have to it on the train with me on my way into work and decided that Baby Rattle Oreo Pops would be the perfect thing to make. The best thing about Oreo baby shower treats are they are simple to make and I mean who doesn’t love an Oreo dipped in more chocolate, they are the perfect easy baby shower dessert idea.

Oreo Baby Rattle Pops Supplies and Ingredients:
- 1 package of Original Oreo Cookies I like the double stuffed oreo as they fit the sticks better, but regular Oreos work fine too
- 1 package of Mini OreosMini Oreos
- 3-4 cups of White Chocolate Wafers
- Sprinkles for decorating
- Lollipop sticks
- Ribbon
Kate’s Tip: Try something different and use Birthday Cake Oreos to change up the taste of these super sweet oreo rattles!
Baby Shower Oreo Pops Directions – How to make chocolate dipped Oreos on a stick!
Open up the large Oreo cookies either by twisting, prying gently with a knife or heat in the microwave for a few seconds to soften the filling
Place the lollipop stick in the filling of the Oreo and press down gently, I find it works well if you create a little “groove” with a knife to remove some of the filling where the stick will go
Melt a few chocolate wafers and place in a piping page with a fine tip – a sandwich bag with the corner snipped off works great too.
Pipe a little bit of melted chocolate over the stick and filling and then place the top of the large Oreo on top. Press gently, and repeat for all remaining Oreos to create Oreo pops.
For the Mini Oreos, I heated batches of 10-15 in the microwave for 15 seconds, just enough to soften the filling opened and pressed the filling side into the other end of the lollipop stick.
Place a little bit of melted chocolate on the stick and replace the top to secure, now you have chocolate covered oreos to create diy baby shower cookies.
Allow to set for 20 minutes.
In the meantime in a medium size bowl melt 1 cup of chocolate wafers on medium heat stirring frequently. Once melted if you find that the chocolate is too thick to pour, add vegetable oil 1 tsp at a time until you get the desired consistency. You want the chocolate to be a little runny, but still think enough to coat the cookies
Dip the cookies into or spoon the chocolate over them to coat both the large and small Oreos. Allow some of the excess chocolate to dip back into the bowl, and use a spoon to remove excess chocolate from the back of the “Rattle”. This will help prevent pooling of chocolate while the rattle sets
Place on a piece of wax paper or parchment paper and before the chocolate sets add your decorative candies and press gently into the chocolate to secure (toothpicks work great for this)
Repeat for all remaining rattles and allow to set for 1 hour or until chocolate has hardened.
Tie the decorate ribbon around the stick. Store in a sealed container in a cool location until serving.
These were a HUGE hit at the baby shower and were gobbled up quickly and is just one idea to make a homemade baby rattle perfect for any party.

Thank you for sharing… I’m new to the grandmothers club, a little one coming in September I will be making these!
what a great idea for a baby shower, I have seen it done with cupcakes but this is much simplier and easier to do
Are these freezable?
These were a great idea and easy to make. Everyone enjoyed them!
How many days in advance can these be made? Such a cute idea!
If you keep them in the fridge after you make them you should be able to make them 3-5 days in advance. The only thing I can think of that would be an issue is watching what sprinkles you use. Anything bright red etc is more like to “bleed” colour into the chocolate. But if you put them into the fridge in an air tight container right after you make them I don’t think this will be an issue either.
