Ingredients
 

  • 16.5 oz Vanilla Box Cake Mix, plus ingredients according to package instructions
  • 1 cup Vanilla Frosting
  • 12 oz Pink Chocolate Candy Melts
  • 1/2 cup Rainbow Sprinkles , plus extra for decoration

Instructions
 

  • Prepare and bake the vanilla cake mix according to package instructions
  • Once the cake is baked, let cool completely in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack
  • When the cake is cooled, crumble the pieces into a separate, large mixing bowl
  • Add about 1 cup of frosting and 1/2 cup of rainbow sprinkles
  • Use an electric hand mixer to combine the cake and frosting
  • If needed, add an additional 1/4 cup of frosting until it reaches a smooth texture that can be rolled into a ball (I used about 1.5 cups of frosting)
  • Once combined and at the desired texture, chill the cake pop batter in the fridge for 30-45 minutes
  • After chilling, scoop about 1.5 tbsp of the cake pop batter and roll into a ball
  • Then place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper
  • Repeat until all the dough has been used
  • Place the baking sheet in the fridge while you melt the pink chocolate wafers
  • Start by melting 1/4 cup of the pink candy melts in a microwave safe dish. Heat in 30 second intervals, mixing in between each until melted
  • Remove the cake pop balls from the fridge
  • Dip the end of a cake pop stick into the chocolate then into the cake pop ball
  • Place back on the parchment paper
  • Repeat until a stick has been placed in each cake pop
  • Put the baking sheet back into the fridge to chill for 30-45 minutes or in the freezer for 20-30 minutes
  • This gives plenty of time for the chocolate to set
  • Remove from the fridge/freezer
  • Now, melt about 1 cup of the pink chocolate wafers in a bowl. Heating for 30 second intervals and mixing in between each to not overheat
  • Coat each cake pop in the pink chocolate
  • Let the excess chocolate drip off
  • Place back on the parchment paper and immediately top with sprinkles before the chocolate hardens
  • Repeat steps 21-23 until all cake pops are coated
  • Let the cake pops set completely at room temperature. You can also place them in the fridge so that they get a nice crunch on the outside shell
  • Enjoy!
