Cake Pops (Pudding)

Cake Pops 

Total Time: 4 hours (THEY'RE WORTH IT!!)

Makes about 22-24 cake pops

This recipe was found online. It is not mine.

Ingredients: 


  • 1 box cake mix of your choice
  • 1 box instant pudding mix (same flavor as cake)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup buttercream frosting
  • 1 bag candy melts candy (any color)
  • 1 package lollipop/cake pop sticks
  • Your choice toppings

Directions:


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray sheet cake pan with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water, and oil. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Pour into the prepared pan.

Bake 35-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely. Divide cake in half and freeze one for future use.

Using your hands, crumble up the cake until no large pieces remain.

Add frosting, mixing with fingers until well combined.

Form into cake balls and chill until set, about 2 hours.

While the cake balls are setting, melt candy melts according to package instructions. 

Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into melted candy, then into set cake balls. Let chill again until set, about 10 minutes. Reserve remaining melted candy.\

Dip cake pops, one at a time into remaining melted candy. Tap lightly to remove excess. If needed, you can reheat the candy with some EZ Thin Dipping Aid to thin out for easier dipping. 

Immediatly cover with topping of choice, then transfer to craft foam or cardboard box. (We found a box and poked wholes in it.) Repeat with remaining cake pops. Chill until set about 10 to 15 minutes. 

PLEASE ENJOY!!!
