Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box Cake Mix of Your Choice
1 box Instant Pudding Mix (3.4 oz (If you're using a chocolate cake mix, use chocolate instant pudding mix.))
4 Eggs
1 cup Water
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
1/2 cup Buttercream Frosting ((chocolate frosting for chocolate pops))
1 bag Candy Melts Candy (12 oz. (any color you'd like))
Your Choice of Toppings ((sprinkles, nuts or other toppings))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray sheet cake pan or baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water and oil. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely. Divide cake in half and freeze one half for future use.
  • Using your hands, crumble up the cake until no large pieces remain.
  • Add frosting, mixing with fingers until well combined.
  • Form into cake balls and chill until set, about 2 hours.Small cake pops: 1 tablespoon-sized cake balls (each about 1 1/4 inch diameter) makes about 48 cake pops.Medium cake pops: 2 tablespoons-sized cake balls (each about 1 1/2 inch diameter) makes about 24 cake pops.Large cake pops: 3 tablespoons-sized cake balls (each about 1 3/4 inch diameter) makes about 16 cake pops.
  • While cake balls are setting, melt Candy Melts candy according to package instructions.
  • Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into melted candy, then into set cake balls. Repeat with all cake balls, then let chill again until set, about 10 minutes. Reserve remaining melted candy.
  • Dip the cake balls, one at a time, into remaining melted candy. Tap lightly to remove excess. If needed, you can reheat the candy with some EZ Thin Dipping Aid to thin it out for easier dipping.
  • Immediately cover with sprinkles or topping of choice, then transfer to craft foam. Repeat with remaining cake pops. Chill until set, about 10 to 15 minutes.
