Starbucks Cake Pops
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Make cake mixture in a large bowl and bake in the oven according to box instructions. Then, let the cake cool at room temperature. Â
-
Remove the cake from the pan. Remove the brown outside layer from the cake and throw away.Â
-
Crumble up the remaining cake and crumbs into a large mixing bowl.
-
Add the frosting to your crumbled cake and stir everything together until well combined.
-
Shape mixture into about 24-36 cake balls (depending on their size) and place on a lined baking sheet. I used a cookie scoop to ensure each was approximately the same size. Â
-
Put the pink candy melts in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Then, continue to heat in 30-second intervals.
-
Dip each cake pop stick into the melted chocolate and place it about halfway through the cake balls. Then, place the sticks in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
-
After the cake pops have been in the freezer, dip each one into the melted candy melts (you may need to melt again if they have solidified). Make sure that the candy covers the cake pop completely. Allow the excess melted candy to drip back into the bowl.
-
Then, place the stick of cake pops in a block of Styrofoam or cardboard box to hold the cake pops while the candy dries and solidifies. Add the sprinkles immediately before the candy dries. Â
-
Cover all cake pops with candy melts. Once all the cake pops are dry, they are ready to serve and enjoy!
