Test Kitchen Tips
  • Substitute any reliable drop cookie recipe for the peanut butter one. Chocolate chip or soft sugar cookie dough works nicely; just chill 45 to 60 minutes so it's easier to work with.
  • Freeze candy bars for 30-45 minutes after inserting lollipop sticks. This helps prevent them from oozing out of cookies.
