When I first stumbled upon an Oreo cake pop recipe, I wasn’t even looking for a dessert. I had a few leftover Oreos, some cream cheese, and a bit of white chocolate from another baking project. On a whim, I threw them together—and to my surprise, the result was something that disappeared within minutes. These cake pops are now a go-to treat in my kitchen, especially when I need something quick but still impressive.
Why This Oreo Cake Pop Recipe Just Works
There’s something almost magical about this Oreo cake pop recipe.

Just honest ingredients and a few steps. This is the ultimate no bake Oreo dessert.
Ingredients You’ll Need for Oreo Cake Pops
- 36 regular Oreo cookies
- 8 oz cream cheese, room temp
- 12 oz white chocolate or candy melts
- Lollipop sticks
- Optional: sprinkles, crushed Oreos, or melted dark chocolate for drizzling
How to Make Oreo Cake Pop Recipe Step by Step
1. Crush the cookies
Toss the Oreos (filling and all) into a food processor and pulse until they’re fine crumbs. No food processor? A zip-top bag and rolling pin work too.
2. Mix with cream cheese
In a bowl, mix the crumbs with cream cheese. I usually do this by hand—it gets a little messy but blends better. You’re looking for a dough-like texture.
3. Shape the balls
Scoop out small portions and roll into balls. Place them on a lined tray. Aim for golf-ball size or smaller.
4. Chill out
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. They need to be firm before you move on.
5. Stick ‘em
Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into melted chocolate and insert halfway into each ball. This helps them stay put.
6. Dip and decorate
Fully dip each pop in melted white chocolate. Let the excess drip off gently. Before it hardens, add your toppings or drizzle with dark chocolate.
7. Let them set
Stick them upright in a foam block or tall glass until the coating firms up.
Handy Tips for Homemade Cake Pops
- Soft cream cheese blends easier, but don’t overdo it—too much and the mix gets sticky.
- If your chocolate is too thick, add a touch of coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out.
- Want color? Use tinted candy melts or edible dusts to match themes.
Fun Twists on Oreo Cake Pop Recipe
- Try flavored Oreos like mint or birthday cake for variety.
- Roll the pops in crushed nuts or freeze-dried fruit for texture.
- Instead of white chocolate, use peanut butter chips for the coating.
How to Store Oreo Cake Pops
Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. They stay fresh for about five days. You can also freeze them—just thaw in the fridge before serving.
