Easy Witch Hat Cake Pops Recipe

These cake pops are made from crumbled chocolate cake mixed with frosting, shaped into cones, and dipped in chocolate. They are then decorated with candy and sprinkles to create the perfect witch hat look. This recipe yields about 12 cake pops and is sure to be a hit at any Halloween celebration.

Ingredients

1 box chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients required on the box)
1 cup chocolate frosting
12 lollipop sticks
1 cup dark chocolate melting wafers
12 chocolate cookies (like Oreos) for the base
12 candy corn pieces for the hat tip
Sprinkles or edible glitter for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Bake the Cake: Prepare the chocolate cake according to the package instructions. Allow it to cool completely.
Make the Cake Pop Mixture: Crumble the cooled cake into a large bowl. Add the chocolate frosting gradually, mixing until the mixture is moist and holds together.
Shape the Cake Pops: Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into cone-like hats. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate melting wafers according to package instructions until smooth.
Assemble the Cake Pops: Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate, then insert it into the base of each cake pop. Let them set for a few minutes.
Dip in Chocolate: Once the sticks are set, dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place them on the chocolate cookies to set.
Decorate: Once the chocolate has hardened, place a candy corn piece on top of each cake pop to resemble the tip of the witch hat. Add sprinkles or edible glitter if desired.
Serve: Display the cake pops on a festive platter and enjoy your Halloween-themed treats!
