Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Yellow Cake Pops.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9x13-inch baking dish to ensure your cake comes out easily.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs.
Step 3
Grab your electric mixer and beat the mixture on low speed for about 30 seconds to blend everything together.
Step 4
Then, turn up the speed to medium and mix for an additional 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and fluffy.
Step 5
Pour this delightful batter into your prepared baking dish and pop it into the oven.
Step 6
Bake for 28 to 33 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, signaling that your cake is perfectly baked.
Step 7
Once it’s done, let the cake cool completely for at least an hour—this is the hardest part, but it’s worth the wait! After the cake has cooled, crumble it into a large bowl.
Step 8
Stir in the chocolate frosting until the mixture is sticky and holds together nicely, but don’t overdo it; a little texture is great! Now, cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to chill and firm up.
Step 9
Once chilled, it’s time to get rolling! Shape the mixture into eighteen 1 1/2-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet.
Step 10
For the next step, melt about 1/4 cup of chocolate candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl.
Step 11
Heat them in the microwave for about 20 seconds, stirring until they’re completely melted and smooth.
Step 12
Now, take a lollipop stick and insert it halfway into each cake ball.
Step 13
Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure they’re fully coated in that delicious chocolate goodness.
Step 14
Stand them upright in a block of styrofoam to set.
Step 15
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle on some colorful candy sprinkles to add a festive touch.
Step 16
Repeat this delightful process for the remaining cake pops, melting more candy melts as needed.
Step 17
And there you have it—your scrumptious cake pops are ready to be enjoyed! Perfect for parties, celebrations, or just a sweet treat for yourself.
Step 18
Happy baking!.
