Bakerella Basic Cake Pops

Ingredients:
– 1 (9×13 inch) cake, any flavor
– 1 cup frosting, any flavor
– 24 oz candy melts or chocolate
– Lollipop sticks
– Sprinkles, nuts, or other decorations (optional)

Instructions:
1. Begin by baking a 9×13 inch cake according to your favorite recipe or using a boxed mix. Let the cake cool completely.

2. Once the cake has cooled, crumble it into a large bowl. You can use your hands or a fork to break up the cake into fine crumbs.

3. Add 1 cup of frosting to the cake crumbs. Mix well until the frosting is fully incorporated and the mixture holds together when pressed.

4. Take small portions of the cake mixture and roll them into balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Place the cake balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

5. Melt the candy melts or chocolate in the microwave or using a double boiler, following the package instructions.

6. Dip the tip of a lollipop stick into the melted candy coating and insert it into a cake ball. Repeat with the remaining cake balls.

7. Once all the cake balls have sticks inserted, carefully dip each one into the melted candy coating, turning to coat evenly. Allow any excess coating to drip off.

8. If desired, sprinkle the cake pops with decorations like colorful sprinkles or chopped nuts while the coating is still wet.

9. Place the decorated cake pops upright in a piece of foam or a cake pop stand to let them set completely. You can also lay them on a parchment-lined tray if you prefer.

10. Once the coating has hardened, your Bakerella Basic Cake Pops are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them at your next gathering, gift them to friends, or simply indulge in these delicious treats yourself.
