Peanut Butter Honey Cookie Pops

I figured it was about time for me to venture into the area of cake pops again.  But, like with my Brownie Pops, I didn't want to use cake.  I eventually decided on peanut butter cookies and, initially, I was just going to mix the cookie crumbles with peanut butter (which would be fun to try to if you don't like honey) but then my husband suggested honey.  And it was a very good suggestion!

  • Spoon
  • Bowl for mixing
  • Pan you can stick in the freezer
  • Parchment or Wax Paper

YUM! I'd eat these... maybe all of them! ;-P~

They are so easy to do too! 'Cept for the coating in chocolate, but I'm pretty sure that's just me :)
bajablue in reply to Penolopy BulnickAug 14, 2012. 2:23 PM
Nope... it's not just you. The candy melts are a pita. I add a little coconut oil to the batch when I use them... which isn't often.

You did a great job with the thin coating.
Penolopy Bulnick (author) in reply to bajablueAug 14, 2012. 2:30 PM
Oh, ha! I just looked up pita; I wasn't sure what you meant :) So does coconut oil make it thinner than?
bajablue in reply to Penolopy BulnickAug 14, 2012. 3:56 PM
lol... I wasn't talking about the bread, Pen. ;-D

Yes. Just a little coconut oil in the melted candy makes it thinner, then solidifies when the shell cools.

That's why I had to look it up, because I knew you couldn't mean the bread! Good old urban dictionary.

lolapimp! (laughing-out-loud-almost-peeing-in-my-pants!) ;-D
Penolopy Bulnick (author) in reply to bajablueAug 14, 2012. 2:29 PM
Thanks :) I was a bit worried about how they looked especially since they were so frustrating to cover. In the end, I gave up trying to make them look nice and I was just glad they were edible!

the only thing missing is BACON crumb coating ! I'm posting this to my bakers in the hopes I'll soon be indulging...
Penolopy Bulnick (author) in reply to l8niteAug 14, 2012. 11:22 AM
I still don't have much experience with bacon and sweet treats. Maybe I should start experimenting!
l8nite in reply to Penolopy BulnickAug 14, 2012. 1:42 PM
my baker daughter said " Good GOD DAD, what's with you and BACON?" I know it sounds odd but bacon really does go with pnutbutter, honey and chocolate so why not everything together!
Penolopy Bulnick (author) in reply to l8niteAug 14, 2012. 1:44 PM
I gotta say, bacon is awesome! I usually just eat it as bacon, but there is nothing wrong with adding it to meals, especially if they go really well together :)

These are more delicious in person!

Thank you :) I'm eating the last one! Hahaha!

I'm not normally interested in cake pops (too much work for the amount of bite!) but these look tempting!
Penolopy Bulnick (author) in reply to artfulannAug 14, 2012. 11:23 AM
And they really aren't to hard to do! It would be much easier to just dunk the balls in chocolate and let them just be peanut butter balls instead of pops! It's a nice way to enjoy them without the hassle.
