Step 3

Place a large piece of Styrofoam on a baking sheet. Mix chocolate chips and oil in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Cook, stirring often, until chocolate is smooth. Let cool to warm room temperature. Dip top of craft stick or lollipop stick into chocolate and insert partway into one of the footballs. Dip football into chocolate, letting excess drip back into bowl. Insert end of stick into Styrofoam to allow chocolate to harden while pops are upright. Repeat with remaining footballs. Refrigerate pops for 15 minutes to set chocolate.
