Halloween Cake Pops



I know, I know its only September but there's nothing like being prepared is there? This is a recipe I use at home for making Cake pops. Usually i make them with fresh cake but in this example I have suggested cake mix to make it easier for people. If you'd like to make it from fresh they are even nicer!!

1 box of cake mix (cook as directed on box)
1 can cream frosting
1 package of cooking/ coating chocolate
wax paper
Cake decorating pen

Step 1. After the cake is cooked and cooled completely, crumble into large bowl.
Step 2. Mix thoroughly with 2 heaped table spoons of frosting. (It may be easier to use fingers to mix together, but be warned it will get messy). Alternatively use melted chocolate to mould them and they will last a lot longer.
Step 3. Roll mixture into quarter size balls and lay on wax paper or tight clingfilm.
Step 4. Chill for several hours in the fridge or 30 mins in the frezzer.
Step 5. Melt chocolate/ candy melts in microwave per directions on package.
Step 6. Dip the end of the lolly stick into the chocolate then pop them into the balls about half way through.
Step 7. Once the end is set dip the ball into the melted chocolate. Step 8. knock the stick gently on the side of the bowl until the extra chocolate has dripped off.
