Galaxy Cake Pops
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 box of chocolate cake mix
- 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup of water
- 1 cup of white chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup of heavy cream
- Assorted gel food coloring (blue, purple, pink, black)
- 24 lollipop sticks
- Edible silver star sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and water. Mix until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool completely, then crumble it into a large bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the white chocolate chips and heavy cream over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and melted. Remove from heat.
- Divide the melted white chocolate into 4 small bowls. Add a few drops of gel food coloring to each bowl to create blue, purple, pink, and black colors. Stir until the colors are well combined.
- Using a small cookie scoop, form the cake mixture into balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it into each cake ball. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.
- Dip each cake pop into the colored chocolate, swirling to create a galaxy effect. Place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with edible silver star sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
- Allow the cake pops to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving. Enjoy!
