floral foam block (optional but great for standing your cake pops at a party)
Ingredients
1Cake Mix
1tub of frosting
1package green candy melts
Instructions
Prepare and bake the cake according to the package directions. Let the cake cool for about 15 minutes, or until it is cool enough to handle.
Crumble the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl until no large pieces remain.
Stir in about ? to ¾ of the tub of frosting until the mixture holds together like dough. Add only enough frosting for the mixture to be easy to shape without becoming too sticky.
Scoop and shape the mixture into 24 bite-sized balls or your desired shape. Place them on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
Insert a lollipop stick into each cake pop, then freeze for 20–30 minutes to firm them up.
Meanwhile, melt the green candy melts according to the package directions until smooth.
Dip each cake pop into the melted candy coating, allowing the excess to drip off. Gently tap the stick against the side of the bowl for a smooth finish.
Stand the cake pops upright in a cake pop stand or a block of foam until the coating is completely set.
If desired, drizzle with melted milk chocolate for decoration before serving.
