Ingredients

  

1x2x3x?

• 1 box chocolate cake mix
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup chocolate frosting store-bought or homemade
• 1 cup candy melts orange, black, or white for decoration
• 20 lollipop sticks
• 1/4 cup black decorating gel for eyes and other decorations

Method

 

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions (mix the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs). Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
3. Allow the cake to cool completely, then crumble it into small pieces in a large bowl.
4. Add the chocolate frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until fully combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed into a ball.
5. Roll the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the candy melts and insert it into the center of each cake ball. This helps the stick stay in place when dipping.
7. Dip each cake pop into the melted candy melts, covering the entire cake ball. You can use different colors (orange, black, or white) to make your cake pops look spooky. Let the excess candy melt drip off and place the cake pops on the parchment paper to set.
8. Once the candy coating has hardened, use the black decorating gel to add spooky faces or other designs to your cake pops.
9. Allow the cake pops to fully set before serving or storing. Enjoy your spooky treats!

2. Bake the cake: Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions by mixing the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
