With a cake pop maker, you can quickly and easily make delicious cake pops in a fraction of the time it would take to make them by hand.

The cake pop maker is an appliance that cooks cake batter into bite-sized round shapes. It is easy to use and can be used to make different flavors and shapes of cake pops. This recipe is for chocolate cake pops and will yield about 24-30 cake pops, depending on the size of the cake pop maker.

Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

1 box of chocolate cake mix
2 large eggs
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1/2 cup of water
1 package of semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup of cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup of confectioners’ sugar
Assorted sprinkles, nuts, and other decorations, as desired

Instructions

To make the cake pops, start by preheating the cake pop maker. Follow the instructions in the manual for the specific type of cake pop maker you are using. Once the cake pop maker is preheated, prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions.

Grease the cake pop maker with a light coating of cooking spray. Pour the cake batter into the cake pop maker in small spoonfuls. Close the lid and cook until the cake pops are golden brown and cooked through. This should take about 4-5 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness. Once the cake pops are done, transfer them to a wire rack to cool.

In a medium-sized bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Dip the cooled cake pops into the melted chocolate and place them on a lined baking sheet. Decorate the cake pops with sprinkles, nuts, and other decorations, as desired. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to set.

In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, and a few drops of water. Mix until a thick frosting forms. Dip the cooled cake pops into the frosting and place them on a lined baking sheet. Decorate the cake pops with sprinkles, nuts, and other decorations, as desired. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to allow the frosting to set.

Once the chocolate and frosting are set, the cake pops are ready to be enjoyed.

Notes

You can also bake the cake pops in a conventional oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a mini-muffin tin with cooking spray. Fill the mini-muffin tin with the cake batter and bake for 10-12 minutes. Allow the cake pops to cool before dipping them in the chocolate and frosting.

If you don’t have a cake pop maker, you can also use a regular muffin tin to make your cake pops. Grease the muffin tin with cooking spray and fill each cup with the cake batter. Bake for 20-25 minutes and allow the cake pops to cool before dipping them in the chocolate and frosting.
