Glittered Cake Pops




I really adore cake pops. I can't tell you I think they taste better than an actual cake, but they are so pretty and petite I just can't get enough of them. I made some glittery ones for a birthday celebration.

You'll need: (one cake makes about 40 good sized pops):
 - Funfetti cake mix (plus the egg, oil, etc.)
 - Funfetti frosting
 - White chocolate chips
 - Edible gold sugar/glitter
 - Lolly-pop sticks

Directions:
 - Bake the cake according to directions, but don't mix in the sprinkles until you crumble later, and cool completely
 - Crumble the cooled cake up with your hands and mix in the frosting and sprinkles
 - Form into balls that fit easily in your palm
 - Put the lolly-pop sticks in them about 2/3 of the way through and rest on wax paper
 - Freeze for 30 minutes
 - Melt the white chocolate in your microwave, and dip, sprinkle with the gold sugar immediately
 - Let them cool upright in a craft foam block
