Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops are made from moist cake crumbled and mixed with frosting, shaped into monster forms, and coated in colorful candy melts. The recipe takes about 1.5 hours from start to finish and yields approximately 12 cake pops.

Ingredients

1 box of cake mix (any flavor)
1 cup frosting (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup candy melts (various colors)
Neon candy eyes for decoration
Lollipop sticks
Sprinkles or edible glitter (optional)
Wax paper for cooling

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions and bake in a 9×13 inch pan. Allow it to cool completely.
Crumble the Cake: Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl. Mix in the frosting until combined and the mixture is moist but not overly sticky.
Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. Insert a lollipop stick into each ball and place them on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
Chill: Refrigerate the cake pops for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Candy: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
Coat the Cake Pops: Dip each chilled cake pop into the melted candy, allowing excess to drip off. Return them to the wax paper.
Decorate: While the coating is still wet, attach neon candy eyes and add sprinkles or edible glitter if desired.
Set: Allow the cake pops to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.
