Spooky Halloween Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops are made from moist cake crumbled and mixed with frosting, then shaped into bat figures and coated with chocolate. The recipe takes about 1.5 hours from start to finish and yields approximately 24 cake pops.

Ingredients

1 box of chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients required on the box)
1 cup chocolate frosting
12 oz black candy melts
24 lollipop sticks
Edible eyes for decoration
Black sprinkles for garnish
Wax paper for drying

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the chocolate cake according to the package instructions. Allow it to cool completely.
Crumble the Cake: Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl. Mix in the chocolate frosting until well combined.
Shape the Cake Pops: Scoop out portions of the cake mixture and form them into bat shapes. Insert a lollipop stick into each bat and place them on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
Chill: Refrigerate the shaped cake pops for about 30 minutes to help them firm up.
Melt the Candy: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the black candy melts according to package instructions until smooth.
Coat the Cake Pops: Dip each chilled cake pop into the melted candy, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow excess to drip off and place them back on the wax paper.
Decorate: Before the coating sets, add edible eyes and sprinkle with black sprinkles to create a spooky look.
Serve: Once the coating has hardened, your Midnight Moonlight Bat Cake Pops are ready to be served. Enjoy your Halloween festivities!
