Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 cup frosting (store-bought or homemade)
- 12 oz chocolate candy coating or melting wafers
- Sprinkles or decorations (optional)
- 6–8 lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions and bake in a 9×13 inch pan. Once baked, let it cool completely.
- Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add frosting a little at a time until the mixture is moist but not overly wet. Form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cake balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until firm.
- Melt the chocolate candy coating according to package instructions. Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it into the center of each cake ball.
- Once all the sticks are inserted, dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- Decorate with sprinkles or any other decorations while the chocolate is still wet. Place the cake pops upright in a block of styrofoam or a cake pop stand to set.
- Let the chocolate harden completely before serving. Enjoy your Mother’s Day cake pops!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use chocolate frosting with chocolate cake or cream cheese frosting with vanilla cake.
- Feel free to customize the decorations based on your mother’s favorite colors or themes!
