Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch round vanilla or chocolate cake
- 0.5 cup cream cheese frosting
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 20 lollipop sticks
- 0.5 cup sprinkles (optional)
- 1 sheet wax paper
Instructions
Start by crumbling the baked and cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Break the cake into very fine crumbs to ensure smooth bon bons.
Add the cream cheese frosting to the cake crumbs, starting with half a cup. Mix thoroughly using a spoon or your hands until the mixture holds together when pinched.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls, using about 1 tablespoon of the mix for each. Place them onto a wax-paper-lined baking sheet. Insert a lollipop stick about halfway into each ball. Freeze the cake balls for 30 minutes to firm up.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vegetable oil in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth and fully melted.
Remove the cake balls from the freezer. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring the entire surface is coated. Gently tap off the excess chocolate.
If desired, quickly sprinkle the coated bon bons with sprinkles before the chocolate sets. Place them back on the wax paper to cool and harden.
Once all the bon bon pops are coated and fully set, serve immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
