Cookie Dough Pops

Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish or two 8×8-inch round cake dishes and bake in a 350 degree F oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the cake cool completely, then crumble it with a fork in a large bowl or in the baking dish. Stir the frosting into the crumbled cake, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze until chilled.

Use a cookie scoop and your hands to roll the mixture into evenly sized balls and place on cookie sheet. You want to try make them all a consistent size – aim for the size of a ping pong ball.

It’s easier to roll the cake & frosting mixture into perfectly round balls if it’s cold. The cake & frosting mixture is super moist, and at room temperature it makes it extremely difficult to shape them perfectly.

Once they have been frozen, I give them another little roll to smooth out the sides. Then place on a baking sheet.

Melt candy melts in the microwave or in a double boiler. Dip the lollipop sticks into the pink chocolate, then stick into one of the cake balls.

Gently dip the balls into the melted chocolate or spoon the chocolate onto balls and twirl to coat, letting the excess chocolate drizzle off onto parchment paper. Decorate with sprinkles if desired.

Place them upright in a styrofoam block, or a cardboard box to harden. There you have it, you have easy cake pops!

These are perfect to bring to a baby shower, birthday parties, or any celebration where you want to impress your guests! Homemade cake pops ALWAYS “wow” guests, trust me.

The best part about making cake pops is you can use leftover cake crumbs, and mix it in with a small amount of icing and they come out great! You can also customize them but using a gluten free cake mix to make gluten free cake pops.

Make sure your cake pops are cold enough before adding the frosting! If they are not cold enough they will change their shape and start to melt once you start trying to frost.

Make fine cake crumbs by using a fork and taking your time, ensuring there are no large chunks. This will make them harder to shape.

Expert tip – use just as much frosting inside the cake pop as you need, no extra. Typically the more frosting the better on traditional cakes, at least in my opinion, but in cake pops this is not the case.

Don’t remove all the cake balls from the freezer at once. Take a little bit out at a time so they are easier to work with.

Candy Melts: Candy melts are my favorite option for coating your cake pops. I find that they melt the easiest and are also super easy for coating. Although candy melts technically are not chocolate, they still taste amazing!

Box Cake Mix: I love using box chocolate cake mix as a shortcut in this recipe. I honestly don't think you can tell the difference. Make sure you use a brand that you enjoy—I'm a fan of Betty Crocker.
