Cake pop



This is a popular and easy to make dessert to bring to a party or as treat during holiday.

It is easy to make. I made it using the cake pop mold. For the cake recipe, please refer to roll cake or muffin post.

After the cake is baked, cool it down. Melt the chocolate chips in the microware. Dip the lollipop stick into the melt choclate and press it into the center of each cake ball. Repeat till all cake balls are done.Let it cool for a while so that  the cake can stick to the stick.

After that, dip the cake ball into the melting chocolate and coat it evenly. Repeat until finished. Let it cool down if you would like to decorate with other color of candy melt. Or else sprinkle it with color sprinkle.
