Michelle’s Cake Pops

A couple years ago a friend of mine, Michelle Gosney, shared this recipe of cake pops with our Mom's group.  We have made them so many times and they are one of the boys favorite treats.  They are so easy and fun!  

• 1 box of cake mix (whatever flavor you want)
• 1 can of frosting (whatever flavor you want but preferably something that will go along with the cake flavor you picked)
• White or Chocolate Almond Bark (or colored candy melts)
• Cake Pop Sticks

Bake cake as directed on box.  When it comes out of the oven, crumble it into a bowl and stir in the frosting.  Using a cookie scoop, drop them on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.  Put them in freezer until they are set up well.  Mold them into balls with your hands. 

Melt the candy melts or almond bark in microwave.  Stick the cake pop sticks in the almond bark and then stick into the cake pop so the stick will set inside the cake pop.  Then take each cake pop with the sticks in and dip them into the almond bark mixture.  

My boys love to sprinkle sprinkles on them too.  You can get as creative as you want with these.  As you can tell, ours are not perfect but the boys (and Hannah) had fun making them.

These also can be frozen for a long time in a closed container and they keep very well.
