Ingredients
Let's gather the ingredients!
- ½ cake cooked, any flavor you prefer
- 2 tbsp cream cheese softened
- 12 ounces candy melts red, white, or pink
- 20 6-inch cookie sticks
- red, white, or pink sprinkles any design will do great!
Instructions
Let's Begin!
- In a large bowl, crumble your preferred cake, then add the cream cheese. Mix well with a spoon.
- Divide the cake into 20 pieces. With the palm of your hand, round out each portion into a ball shape.
- Place your cake pops on a sheet pan or plate, and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- While the cake pops are in the freezer, place all of the candy melts in a medium-sized bowl. Microwave for 30-second intervals until completely melted.
- Place the cookie stick in the candy melt, then the cake pop. Then dip the cake pop into the candy melts. Coat the pop completely with the melt. On the side of the bowl, tap it gently with the stick removing any excess chocolate from the cake pop to create a smooth finish.
- Place the cake pop on the parchment paper. Immediately add the sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Serve and enjoy with family and friends!
