Cake Pops 101 with Timinda


For date night tonight we tried our hands at making cake pops.  It was fun and messy and we have a ways to go... but I think they turned out pretty well!


Step 1:  Bake a cake and crumble into pieces after it cools.  We used a Funfetti Box Mix.  


Add a can of frosting.  We like cream cheese and the consistency works pretty well.



After mixing in the frosting, grab a clump and form into golf ball sized balls.



Place balls on cookie sheet and refrigerate for a bit.


Melt chocolate melts (and these work better than the chocolate chips) in a microwave safe bowl in increments of 30 seconds.  Stir in between.


Dip lollypop sticks (purchased in the cake decorating / candy making aisle of craft stores) in chocolate and place in center of ball.


Roll balls in chocolate.  Decorate (quickly) and wait to harden.

Enjoy!
