Cake Pops


Cake pops are a fun treat for any occasion. I recently made these for my niece's birthday party! All of the kids loved running around with them. It's cake on a stick--how perfect is that!

Ingredients:
-Your favorite cake recipe
-2 tbsp. of your favorite icing
-Cake pop sticks--can be purchased at crafts stores like Michaels
-Wilton's Candy Melts
-Sprinkles

Directions:

1) Bake your favorite cake recipe and let it cool.
2) Crumble the cake into a medium size bowl.
3) Add 2 tbsp. of your favorite white icing and mix into the cake to form a cohesive mixture.
4) Roll the cake into small balls and place on a cookie sheet.
5) Place cookie sheet into the freezer for 20 minutes to let the cake balls harden.
6) Melt Wilton's Candy Melts and partially dip the sticks into the melted candy.
7) Place the stick into the frozen cake balls and let the candy harden for 10 minutes.
8) Once all of the sticks are placed into the cake balls, you may need to reheat the candy melts before your dip the cake into the melt.
9) Before the candy hardens, sprinkle it with sprinkles!








Here are some great ideas I love for the upcoming Holidays:
