With so many Christmas desserts to choose from, coming up with the perfect spread of sweets can be quite a difficult task — especially if your main courses will be the star of the show. But that doesn’t mean your desserts have to be boring or an afterthought. And before you start searching up regular cake recipes, consider a more finger food-friendly option instead: cake pops. These bite-sized treats are great for passing around the dinner table or as a post-dinner treat to snack on while watching a Christmas movie marathon. With these easy recipes, you don't even need to be an expert baker or have a cake pop maker to make them. You can bake them in the oven and they'll turn out just as yummy!
Plus, the options are endless for the types of cake pops you can make (including gluten-free!). Whether you opt for toppings like sprinkles, peppermint, or just a super rich chocolate coating, there’s guaranteed to be a cake pop for every palate. And since it’s Christmas, this is the best time to make your treats reflect the joyous holiday by making your cake pops resemble iconic holiday characters like Rudolph and Frosty the Snowman, or in the shape of a Christmas tree. They're just what you'll need after putting up all those Christmas decorations and making crafts with the kids. So break out your holiday apron and try out some of these delicious Christmas cake pop recipes.
Even if it’s not snowing on Christmas Day, you can still incorporate a few snowmen in your holiday celebrations with these “cool” cake pops.

How To Make Cake Pops (easy And Fool Proof)
Follow ’s step-by-step guidelines on how to make perfect cake pops: prep and chill the balls with the icing, insert the sticks in the center, and chill for an additional 5 minutes to set the sticks.
Melt the white chocolate coating and let cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Once it has cooled slightly, dip each one in the chocolate, swirling it to completely coat the surface.
Gently tap it on the side of the bowl to remove any excess, using your fingers or a toothpick if necessary to guide the excess melted coating back into the bowl. Keep tapping and swirling the stick until all excess chocolate is removed, and you have a smooth, even layer.
Red Velvet Cake Pops Recipe
If the chocolate gets too thick or too cold to work with, re-warm in the microwave, and stir in a little vegetable shortening.
Apply any sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet and has not yet set. The chocolate will harden quickly, so you want to work fast to make sure the sprinkles stick.
If you want your pops to stand up on their own, apply one extra chocolate wafer on top of each pop with a little melted chocolate, with the flat side of the wafer facing up.

Place the pops back on the foam block to completely set, about 20 minutes. Once the chocolate has completely set, your bite-sized desserts can be eaten immediately, or they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can carefully wrap each individual treat in cellophane and store on a large platter. Or, you can keep them upright on the foam block, and gently cover with a large sheet of plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
