Easy Cake Bites
Ingredients
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix (such as Betty Crocker®)
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 (16 ounce) container prepared chocolate frosting
  • 18 lollipop sticks
  • 1 (14 ounce) bag chocolate candy melts
  • 1 (.75 ounce) tube decorating icing
  • 1 tablespoon multicolored candy sprinkles, or as needed
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, take a 9x13-inch baking dish and grease it thoroughly.
2
Combine the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a bowl using an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Gradually increase the speed to medium and continue beating for an additional 2 minutes.
3
Pour the cake batter into your prepared baking dish.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, taking 28 to 33 minutes in total. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool completely for at least 1 hour.
5
Crumble the cooled cake into a large bowl.
6
Mix in your frosting until the mixture becomes sticky and starts to come together, but remains slightly chunky. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill.
7
Roll out the cake mixture into eighteen 1 1/2-inch balls and arrange them on a baking sheet.
8
Place about 1/4 cup of candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until the candy is melted, taking about 20 seconds.
9
Insert a lollipop stick halfway into each ball of cake mixture.
10
Dip the balls gently into the melted chocolate to coat, then place them upright in a block of styrofoam.
11
Decorate the cake pops with candy sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet. Repeat this process to make the remaining cake pops, melting more candy melts as needed.

Finally, indulge in your delicious creations!
