Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe
These cake pops are made from crumbled cake mixed with frosting, shaped into balls, and coated in green candy melts. They are decorated to resemble Frankenstein’s monster, complete with eyes and bolts. This recipe yields about 24 cake pops and takes approximately 1 hour to prepare and decorate.
Ingredients
- 1 box cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 cup frosting (store-bought or homemade)
- 12 oz green candy melts
- 24 lollipop sticks
- Black icing for decoration
- Candy eyes
- Silver or gray candy pieces for bolts
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. Mix in the frosting until well combined.
- Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Melt the Candy: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the green candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
