Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops feature a cookie crumble base coated in chocolate and decorated to resemble tombstones. The recipe takes about 1 hour from start to finish and yields approximately 12 cake pops.

Ingredients

2 cups chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
8 oz chocolate or candy melts for coating
Lollipop sticks
Decorating icing or edible markers for tombstone designs
Sprinkles or edible glitter for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Cookie Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate cookies and softened cream cheese. Mix until well combined and the mixture holds together.
Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into oval shapes to form tombstones. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt the Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate or candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
Dip the Cake Pops: Insert a lollipop stick into the bottom of each tombstone shape, then dip each one into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
Decorate: Place the coated cake pops back on the parchment paper. Use decorating icing or edible markers to draw tombstone designs. Add sprinkles or edible glitter if desired.
Set and Serve: Let the cake pops set at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens. Serve them on a decorative platter for a spooky Halloween treat.
