Funny Cake Pops
Megan told me about Cake Pops. I think these are adorable and just the right size for dessert–only two bites of cake. Easy to make by the children, cute to serve. Perfect for holidays gift giving.
The cake pop ideas are endless: birthdays, baby showers, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Passover, sporting events, etc.
Ingredients
- 1 (18 ounce) cake mix, desired flavor, prepared according to package
- 2 -3 eggs (or whatever your package calls for)
- 1/3 cup oil (or whatever your package calls for)
- 0.5 (16 ounce) can frosting
, any flavor, store bought
- 7 ounces white chocolate candy melts
(or any flavor you like)
- candy sprinkles
- package of pop sticks
- food coloring
Directions
1. Bake cake according to package and let cool.
2. Crumble entire cake in food processor, in batches if necessary, and empty into mixing bowl.
3. Mix in 1/2 can of store bought frosting or equal amount of homemade frosting until a dough forms (tends to be easiest by hand).
4. Scoop and form into one inch balls, easiest if using a small cookie scooper.
5. Melt white chocolate according to package.
6. For each cake pop, first dip the very end of a lollipop stick into the melted candy coating and insert about half way into cake ball).
7. Chill uncoated cake pops for at least 1 hour.
8. Re-melt your white chocolate and coat the cake pops one by one, dipping one side and turning to coat completely. (If you want colored cake pops then separate your melts into bowls and add a drop or two of food coloring.
9. After coated, insert pop sticks and stand the cake pop up in the styrofoam block or shirt box and decorate with sprinkles before coating is set.
