Valentines Cake Pops
What you’ll need:
• 1
Red velvet cake mix
• 1
cup water
• 2
eggs
• 1/4
cup oil
• 1
cream cheese frosting
• 1
bar of Candiquik (I chose the white one)
• Cake
pop sticks
• sprinkles
(if desired)
Instructions
1)
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and mix together
cake mix, water, eggs, and oil. Mix until all the clumps are gone.
2)
Bake your cake according to the time listed on
your box (it depends on the type of pan you’re using.)
3)
After you’re done baking, let your cake cool a
bit. Then take a fork and break the cake into little crumbs. You may transfer
the cake to a bowl to do this.
4)
Once the cake is completely cooled and is broken
up into crumbs, add in the frosting. Usually people say to use the whole jar,
but I recommend start off with half of the jar and adding more later. You don’t
want your cake balls to be too soggy/oily.
5)
This next step requires you to use your hands so
make sure they’re clean! Now DIG IN! Use your hands to mix the crumbs into
the frosting.
6)
Once you’re done, take piece of the mixture and
use your hands to roll them into 1-inch balls.
7)
Now set them on a plate or tray. Now take a tiny
bit of the candiquik and melt it in the microwave.
8)
Once you’re done with that, take your cake pop
sticks and dip them one at a time into the candiquik and stick it into each
cake ball. This helps to make sure that the sticks will stay inside the cake
ball.
9)
Now refrigerate these for 45 min-1 hour.
10) Melt
some of the candiquik and dip each cake ball into it. Make sure to cover the
whole thing!
11) You
may dip it into some sprinkles if you’d like, which would add a touch of
color!
This one may take a while,
but they’re
just so pretty!
