Ingredients
For the Cake:
- 432 gram Chocolate cake mix
- 3 eggs or as listed on cake mix box
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil or as listed on cake mix box
- 1 cup water or as listed on cake mix box
For the Frosting:
- 1/2 cup 115g chocolate frosting
- For the Coating & Decoration:
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips or melting wafers (340g)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts (90g)
- 2 tbsp Sprinkles optional
- 1 piece Black edible marker
Other Supplies:
- 24 pieces Lollipop sticks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare chocolate cake mix according to package directions using eggs, oil, and water. Bake in a greased pan for 25–30 minutes or until done. Let cool completely.
- Once cooled, crumble cake into a large mixing bowl. Add chocolate frosting and mix until the texture becomes like thick dough.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Insert a lollipop stick into each ball. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 20–30 minutes until firm.
- Melt semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth. Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Place upright in a stand or on parchment to set.
- Melt white chocolate chips and transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag. Snip a small tip off the bag. Pipe thin spider web designs onto the chocolate-coated cake pops.
- While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle with Halloween-themed sprinkles. Use an edible marker to draw faces or extra details if desired.
- Let the cake pops stand upright until the coating fully hardens. Store in an airtight container.
