Ingredients
- 1 box of cake mix (flavor of your choice)
- 1 can of frosting (flavor that complements the cake)
- 1 package of candy melts (color of your choice)
- Lollipop sticks
- Sprinkles, chocolate chips, or any other desired toppings
Directions
- Bake the cake according to the instructions on the box and let it cool completely.
- In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs using your hands or a fork.
- Add the frosting to the cake crumbs and mix thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should be sticky enough to hold its shape when formed into balls.
- Take a small portion of cake mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
- Place the cake balls on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
- Meanwhile, melt the candy melts according to the instructions on the package.
- Once the cake balls are firm, dip the tip of a lollipop stick into the melted candy melts and insert it into a cake ball, about halfway through. Repeat with the remaining cake balls.
- Dip each cake pop into the melted candy, making sure to coat it completely. Allow any excess candy to drip off.
- While the candy coating is still wet, decorate the cake pops with sprinkles, chocolate chips, or any desired toppings.
- Place the decorated cake pops back onto the tray and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to allow the candy coating to harden.
- Serve the crazy cake pops on a decorative platter or individually wrapped in clear treat bags.
