For any occasion, these whimsical and entertaining Animal Print Cake Pops are perfect. Kids and adults alike will be delighted by the combination of chocolate cake, vibrant patterns, and a delicious candy coating.
Ingredients: 1 box chocolate cake mix. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 3 large eggs. 1 cup milk. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1 cup chocolate frosting. Assorted food coloring black, orange, and yellow. White candy melts. Cake pop sticks.
Instructions: Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to package instructions. Bake the cake in a 9x13-inch pan and let it cool completely. In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs. Add softened butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the crumbs. Mix until well combined. Mix in chocolate frosting until the mixture reaches a dough-like consistency. Divide the cake mixture into three equal parts. Color one part with black food coloring, another with orange, and the last one with yellow. Mix each until the colors are uniform. Take small amounts of each colored mixture and roll them into small balls. Melt white candy melts according to the package instructions. Insert cake pop sticks into the cake balls and dip them into the melted white candy melts, coating them evenly. Before the candy coating sets, use a toothpick to create animal print patterns by dragging through the colored cake mix on the surface of the cake pops. Allow the cake pops to cool and the candy coating to harden. Serve and enjoy your delicious Animal Print Cake Pops!
