Do you have a Minecraft fan in your house? I have 3 of them and all of them have started drawing the different characters and have been talking about the creepers and the pigs and many things that are quite over my head when it comes to that game. I have tried to play it with them and some how I end up leaving their camp that they made and getting myself into trouble and the kids yell at me, so I have decided to stick to what I know best and that is making creative fun treats like these Minecraft pops for them.
If you are having a Minecraft birthday party these would be a huge hit with the kids and since they are on sticks there is less chance of kids having messy hands. What is awesome about these Minecraft Pops is that you really do not have to be all that creative, its a few straight lines and even if you have issues drawing straight lines the kids will love them anyway 🙂

Minecraft Sheep Snickers Pops Directions
Remove the wrapping from the mini Snickers. With the pop sticks, push them into the Snickers. Be sure not to push them all the way through.
Get a small size microwavable dish, melt about ½ cup white candy melts according to the microwave directions on the bag. While you could just do a dip coat, I found you get a smoother surface by using the back of a spoon of the flat side of a butter knife to smooth it over the Snickers like you are frosting it. Put a light coat on all sides. Place them upright in a glass, to harden. After they are hard to the touch (usually about 5-10 min.), give them a second coat just like the first. By coating them again you will cover any left behind brown spots. Place them back in the glass and allow to dry again.
In a different dish, melt 2 to 3 chips of the pink. Using a toothpick paint a square at the bottom center of the flattest side of the candy.
Now melt a few chips of the brown. If you don’t have brown you could also use milk chocolate here. Grab another toothpick to paint on the brown. Do a line down each side of the pink. Now also with the brown do a hollow center rectangle all the way across the candy connecting across the top of the pink nose. Then in the center of that hollow rectangle do a brown square just above the pink one.
Now melt a few chips of the black and make a small square on the inside ends of the rectangle. Be sure to leave a white gap between the black and the brown square in the center.
