Description
Simple recipe for sweet strawberry cake pops on a stick.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) white cake mix
- Ingredients listed on cake mix box for preparation (usually eggs, oil, water)
- 1 container (16 oz) vanilla frosting
- 1 teaspoon strawberry extract
- 1/2 cup strawberry jam or preserves
- 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate melting wafers
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Prepare the white cake according to the box directions. Bake in a 9×13 inch pan. Let the cake cool completely.
- Crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl.
- Mix the vanilla frosting, strawberry extract, and strawberry jam into the cake crumbs until fully combined and the mixture holds its shape when squeezed.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the cake balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the white chocolate wafers with the vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip the tip of a lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it about halfway into a chilled cake ball. Return to the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Dip each cake pop entirely into the melted chocolate, gently tapping the stick against the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate.
- Place the dipped cake pops upright in a styrofoam block or stand until the chocolate sets completely.
Notes
- For a smoother coating, add a small amount of shortening to the melting chocolate.
- You can decorate the pops with sprinkles before the chocolate hardens.
