Ingredients
- 200 grams cookies or a box of cake mix
- 140-160 grams white chocolate or cream cheese frosting
- 1 orange
- 300 grams dark chocolate
- 50 grams white chocolate
- 1 green sprinkles, red candy melts, or whatever festive stuff
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter Let's prep our cake base! If you're using cookies, use a food processor or a rolling pin inside a ziplock bag to break them into small crumbs. If you're using cake mix, just follow the package instructions.
- Step 2: Mix the Cake Batter Time to mix it up! In a large bowl, combine your cookie crumbs (or cake mix) with the melted chocolate or cream cheese frosting. Zest some orange peel and add it to the mixture for a refreshing citrusy flavor.
- Step 3: Shape the Cake Form the dough into ten equal portions and roll each into a cake ball. You can make them in various sizes if you'd like. To keep the cake balls from sticking, place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. After that, let them cool for around half an hour in the fridge.
- Step 4: Stick a cake pop Let's get sticking! Melt your chocolate and dip the bottom of a lollipop stick into it. Insert the sticks into cake pop balls and chill them for 5 minutes.
- Step 5: Dip the CakeTime to coat our cake pops! Turn each cake pop so that it is fully coated after dipping it into the melted chocolate. To cool and harden, place them on a wire rack.
- Step 6: Decorate Now comes the fun part – decorating! Drizzle some white chocolate over the dark chocolate for a festive look. You can also add sprinkles, red candy melts, or any other Christmas decorations you like. Let your imagination run wild!
