Description
Delightful chocolate cake pops inspired by Starbucks, perfect for recreating joyful moments in the kitchen.
Ingredients
- 1 chocolate cake (baked and cooled)
- 1 cup frosting (chocolate or vanilla)
- 2 cups chocolate melts (dark or milk chocolate)
- Lollipop sticks or cake pop sticks
- Decorative sprinkles or toppings
Instructions
- Crumble the cooled chocolate cake into a large bowl, mixing in the frosting until well combined.
- Roll the mixture into balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate the cake balls for at least 30 minutes.
- While the cake balls chill, melt the chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
- Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it into a cake ball to secure the stick in place.
- Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Optionally, coat the chocolate with sprinkles or other toppings while the chocolate is still wet.
- Place the cake pops upright in foam or a stand, allowing them to set completely.
Notes
Chill the cake balls again before dipping to prevent them from sinking in the chocolate. Use high-quality chocolate melts for best results.
