How did I forget to post this one? I made these last year, and as a Mom of two little boy monkeys......well, these were a huge hit. Ninjago. If you have little boys in your family, you've heard of it (TV show....and a crazy amount of Lego toys). If you don't have boys.....well then, you may have escaped this one ;) Both of my boys have been crazy for this series since it first came out, so when a dear friend told me that she was throwing a Ninjago birthday party for her Kindergartener, I jumped at the chance to try to do some Oreo pops of these guys.
What you'll need:
Oreos
lollipop sticks
yellow candy melts
black candy melts
candy melts for each of the colors of the ninjas you want to include, I used:
red candy melts
white candy melts
black candy melts
green candy melts
blue candy melts
plastic squeeze bottles or plastic bags
To do these, you'll start with the basic Oreo Pop technique that How Does She has detailed in a step-by-step. One you've got your base color (Which ninja did you start with? The blue and green ninjas are the most popular at our house!), you're going to add an rounded rectangle of yellow for the face, using yellow candy melts. Next, it's time for the eyes and eyebrows, using black candy melts, or chocolate. I found that using a little squeeze bottle was easiest to get perfect little dots for the eyes.
Lastly it's time for their head wraps. You're going to drizzle more of the colored candy melt, just like you do for the Mummy Oreo Pops. And voila! You've got yourself a team of ninjas!
Have fun! And Enjoy!
