Preparation Steps
- Finely crush 9 OREO cookies in a food processor until resembling fine crumbs. Break the remaining OREO cookies in half and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed OREO crumbs with softened cream cheese until smooth. Shape into 12 balls about 1 inch in diameter.
- Melt a small amount of semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds. Dip one end of each lollipop stick in the melted chocolate, then insert it into the center of each cookie ball. Place them on a lined baking sheet.
- Transfer the baking sheet with the cookie balls to the freezer for 10 minutes to firm them up.
- Dip each chilled cookie ball fully into the melted chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before returning them to the baking sheet.
- Cut the flat ends off the two cookie halves. Dip these edges in melted chocolate and attach them to the sides of each cookie ball to form wings.
- Use mini candy button eyes and chocolate chips to create faces on the bats. Optionally, use white decorating icing for additional details.
- Place the decorated pops back in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to set completely.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for a smooth mixture and take care when inserting lollipop sticks to prevent cracking the cookie balls.
