Ingredients
- 1 box vanilla cake mix (plus required ingredients for baking)
- 1 container cream cheese frosting
- 1 package white chocolate melts
- Assorted sprinkles
- Lollipop sticks
Instructions
Bake the Cake – Prepare and bake the vanilla cake according to the package instructions. Let it cool completely.
Crumble and Mix – In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine pieces. Mix in the cream cheese frosting until a dough-like consistency forms.
Form Cake Balls – Roll the mixture into small, even-sized balls. Insert a lollipop stick into each ball and place them on a lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up.
Melt the Chocolate – In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate melts in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
Dip and Decorate – Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating. Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle with decorations or use colored icing to create fun Easter designs.
Let Them Set – Place the coated cake pops upright in a stand or an inverted egg carton to dry completely.
Serve and Enjoy – Once the chocolate is fully set, serve and enjoy these festive treats!
Notes
- Use pastel-colored candy melts for a more festive look.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Let cake pops sit at room temperature for a few minutes before dipping to prevent cracks.
- Experiment with different cake flavors like lemon, chocolate, or carrot cake for variety.
