Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe
These cake pops feature a rich cake base filled with a raspberry center, coated in white chocolate and decorated to resemble bloody eyeballs. The recipe takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes from start to finish and yields approximately 12 cake pops.
Ingredients
- 1 box of cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 cup raspberry jam or filling
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Red food coloring
- Candy eyes for decoration
- Lollipop sticks
- Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Bake the Cake: Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions and bake in a 9×13 inch pan. Allow to cool completely.
- Crumble the Cake: Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl until fine crumbs form.
- Add Filling: Mix in raspberry jam until the mixture is moist enough to hold together when rolled into balls.
- Form Cake Pops: Roll the mixture into balls about 1 inch in diameter and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Insert lollipop sticks into each ball.
- Chill: Refrigerate the cake pops for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips with vegetable oil until smooth. Stir in red food coloring to achieve a bloody effect.
- Coat Cake Pops: Dip each chilled cake pop into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place back on the parchment paper.
- Decorate: While the chocolate is still wet, place candy eyes on top of each cake pop. Use a toothpick to drizzle additional red chocolate or food coloring to create a bloody effect.
- Let Set: Allow the cake pops to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.
