Set out a basket of these pleasing lollipops at your next bazaar or family event and watch them disappear! You can easily create characters by icing the cookies with store-bought frosting like the CT home economists did here or serve them plain just as Jan Cassidy of El Reno, Oklahoma often does. Our children love eating cookies either way, Jan details. What I enjoy is the fact that serving the sweets on sticks like this keeps messy hands to a minimum. Jan Cassidy, El Reno, Oklahoma Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1 cup sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
30 wooden popsicle or craft sticks |

2. Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls; cover and chill for 1 hour. Place 4 in. apart on greased baking sheets; push a stick into the side of each ball. Bake at 350° for 15-18 minutes. Cool 1 minute before removing to wire racks; cool completely.
3. Tint vanilla frosting with food coloring (or use some as is); decorate cookies as desired with frosting and candies (adhere candies to cookies using a drop of frosting). Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.
