Cake Pops.

I thought I would do a step by step of the recipe/instructions for the cake pops. They were so incredibly fun and easy! (Just time consuming...)

Stuff You Need
Box cake - your choice in flavor (I used your standard Yellow cake mix)

Vanilla Buttercream Frosting Ingredients:
2 C Powdered Sugar
1/4 C (1/2 stick) Butter
1/2 t Vanilla
1.5-2 T Milk

Candy Melts (A cheap quality that comes in various colors found in Michael's are by Wilton but I like the ones found in specialty candy stores because they are better quality)
Oil Based Food Coloring (You will need this if you don't buy the pre-colored melts from Micheal's)
Lollipop Sticks
3"x4" Treat Bags
1/8" Ribbon
Cake Sparkles (or any other candies for decorating)
Foam (for cooling/drying)

Directions
Bake box cake to instructions on the box. Let cool 10 minutes once you remove cake from oven. Scoop out cake into a bowl and place in fridge to cool for about an hour.

Meanwhile, make the buttercream frosting by combining all ingredients in mixing bowl and mix until combined. Add more milk if necessary for spreading consistency. Set aside.

Once the cake is cooled, add frosting to cake and combine until all the cake is moistened. Roll the cake between hands into 1" balls and place on parchment paper.

Once the balls are rolled, melt the candy melts by following instructions on the bag. Dip the tip of the lollipop sticks into melted candy and place the dipped end into the cake ball a little over halfway. Once all the cake balls have their sticks in place, put the cake balls into the fridge and cool for an additional hour or until the melted candy has hardened.

Following the cooling process, reheat the candy melts until smooth again, and dip the pops in the melted candy one at a time. Sprinkle with decoration and place pop into the foam to cool or dry.

Once all pops are dipped and cooled, put them into the treat bags and tie with ribbon. You can choose to add little labels too to add a special customized element!
