Fried Chicken Cake Pops Recipes

NO-BAKE CAKE POPS

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, pulse 12 rolls until a fine consistency.
• Make the frosting: In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese with a mixer for 2 minutes, or until creamy. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat until combined. Then, add the grated coconut to the frosting. Lastly, add in the salt, coconut extract and almond extract.
• Mix the pulsed rolls and frosting together until combined. (You may have to blend 2 to 3 extra rolls and add them in to get your desired consistency.) Roll the mixture into small balls and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Melt the white chocolate chips, then stir in some food coloring if you want. Dip cake pop sticks in the white chocolate and insert a stick into each cake ball. Freeze for 20 minutes, or until hardened. Remelt the white chocolate and fully dip the cake pops. Return to the freezer until set, about 20 minutes.

CAKE POPS

Steps:

• Prepare and bake the cake according to the package directions for a 9-by-13-inch pan. Let cool completely.
• Break the cake into pieces and place it in a food processor. Add the frosting and process until the mixture forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, about 30 seconds. If the mixture doesn't come together, add more frosting 1 tablespoon at a time until it holds its shape.
• Using a 3/4-ounce scoop, form the mixture into 46 balls and put them on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the candy wafers in a microwave-safe bowl and melt according to package directions. Dip a half inch of the tip of a lollipop stick into the candy and then stick the tip halfway into a cake ball. Repeat with the remaining balls and sticks. Refrigerate the cake pops until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
• Microwave the candy again until melted and pour it into a tall narrow glass. Dip each cake pop into the candy and let any excess run off. If decorating, turn the cake pop upright and sprinkle with sprinkles while the coating is still wet. Stick the finished pops in two 9.8-by-11.8-inch Styrofoam blocks block and let set completely.

CARROT CAKE POPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Coat a 9-by-13-inch pan with cooking spray. Prepare the cake mix, pour into the prepared pan and bake as directed. Let cool.
• Crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add the frosting and mix with your hands until well combined. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• With damp hands, form the crumbled cake mixture into 12 to 15 compact carrot-shaped logs, about 8 inches long. Put on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Carefully insert a skewer into each carrot, reshaping as needed. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Melt the orange and red candy melts together in a large bowl in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth.
• Transfer the melted candy to a shallow baking dish. Working quickly, dip the cake pops in the candy melts, turning to coat, then return to the baking sheet to set.
• Once set, use a skewer or toothpick to etch horizontal lines in the coating.
• Brush the carrots with cocoa powder, making sure it gets into the etched lines.
• Remove the skewers from the carrots. Use extra melted candy to attach a piece of green licorice to each; let set.

SIMPLE CAKE POPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Beat cake mix, water, eggs, and oil in a bowl using an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes more. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 28 to 33 minutes. Cool completely, at least 1 hour.
• Crumble cake into a large bowl. Stir frosting into cake crumbles until mixture is sticky but not too smooth. Chill in refrigerator, at least 30 minutes.
• Roll cake mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls and arrange on a baking sheet. Place 1 lollipop stick into each ball.
• Melt about 1/4 cup chocolate candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave, about 20 seconds. Dip each cake pop in the melted chocolate. Repeat melting chocolate and dipping remaining cake pops. Decorate pops with decorating icing.
