  • 1 box classic cake mix (ingredients called for on box to make the cake)

  • 3 Tbsp Vanilla Frosting I used pre-made

  • 24-36 Cake Pop Sticks or Lollipop Sticks

  • 12 oz Pink Candy Melts

  • White Sprinkles

    • INSTRUCTIONS

    • Make cake and bake according to box instructions. Then let the cake cool at room temperature.

    • Remove the cake from the pan.  Remove the brown outside layer from the cake and throw away.  Crumble up the remaining cake into a large bowl.

    • Add the frosting to your crumbled cake and stir everything together until well combined.

    • Shape mixture into about 24-36 cake balls (depending on their size) and place on a lined cookie sheet. I used a cookie scoop to ensure that each one is approximately the same size.

    • Put the pink candy melts in a small microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, then stir.  Then continue to heat in 30 second intervals stirring between each one until the candy melts are fully melted and creamy.

    • Dip each cake pop stick into the pink melted candy and then place them into the cake balls about halfway threw the balls.  Then place in freezer for 10-15 minutes.

    • After the cake pops have been in the freezer.  Dip each cake pop into the melted candy melts (you may need to remelt if it has solidified some).  Make sure that the candy covers the cake pop completely.  Allow the excess melted candy to drip off back into the bowl.

    • Then place the stick of cake pops in a block of styrofoam while the candy dries and solidifies.  Add the sprinkles immediately before the candy dries.

    • Continue until all the cake pops have been covered.  Once all the cake pops are dry, they are ready to serve and enjoy!

    RECIPE NOTES

    You can use white almond bark instead of the candy melts for the outside coating if you prefer.  Use food coloring to dye it pink prior to dipping the cake pops in the mixture.

My older brother would always get me one, every time he nabbed a Batman issue.
