Welcome to Day 19 of the 100 Days of Homemade Holiday Inspiration! Each day we will be inspiring you with recipes, decorating ideas, crafts, homemade gift ideas and much more!
Chocolate Lollipops can be made for a variety of occasions, this time we are making them for Christmas.
You can also use a chocolate mold, they come in many different shapes and sizes. This time we kept it really simple and used a round cup to trace a circle onto parchment paper for a pattern.
In about 15 or 20 minutes, you can have a whole set of these Chocolate Lollipops made, then let them set until they are hard and you are ready to tie a ribbon on them for gift giving.
Chocolate Lollipops
Ingredients and Supplies
- Chocolate – I have found Almond Bark to be the easiest to use.
- Sprinkles
- Colored Candy Melts – this is optional, but fun to decorate the lollipops with
- Lollipop Sticks
- Plastic Squeeze Bottles
- Circle Pattern – something round (the size you want the lollipops) to trace
- Marker to trace with
- Parchment Paper
How to Make Chocolate Lollipops
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Then trace a circle onto the back side of the paper. You can also buy circle candy lollipops molds if you want.
- Continue tracing circles, be sure to leave room for the stick
- Melt chocolate in microwave safe bowl. Start with 1 minute, then stir. Heat for 30 second intervals, stirring after each heating. Stop when there are a few bits of chocolate left, then stir until completely melted.
- Add chocolate to squeeze bottle. And trace around the circle with the chocolate then fill in the center.
- Add the stick and roll it to coat. Then add more chocolate on top of the stick, making the lollipop thicker
- For the white chocolate lollipops – melt a small amount of colored candy melts in a microwave safe bowl. Then add a drop of melted chocolate using a toothpick.
- Use a toothpick to swirl the candy melts.
