Simple Irish Cake Pops Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Prepare the cake mix according to directions. Stir in the green food coloring.
• Bake the cake in a 9×13-inch pan according to time and temperature on the package.
• Let the cake cool completely, then break apart and crumble until fine crumbs form.
• Stir in the frosting until a dough forms. If the dough seems dry, you can add additional frosting, 1 Tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
• Roll the cake mixture into Tablespoon-sized balls. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for at least 1 hour.
• Melt the white candy in a bowl in the microwave, heating for 30-second increments or until completely smooth.
• Place each cake ball on a fork and use a spoon to pour the candy melts over the cake ball. Tap against the side of the bowl to remove excess candy melt.
• Place the ball on a parchment-lined sheet pan and top with sprinkles if desired.
• Repeat with remaining cake balls and candy melts.
• Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. Can be made up to 3 days in advance.

CAKE POPS

Steps:

• First make the cake. Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Grease and line the base of a 20cm sandwich tin. Place the butter, sugar and vanilla extract into a bowl and beat well to a creamy consistency. Slowly beat in the eggs, one by one, then fold in the flour and mix well. Tip into the cake tin and bake for about 20 mins until risen and golden brown. Set aside to cool completely.
• While the cakes are cooling, make the buttercream. In a large bowl or the bowl of stand mixer, beat the butter and icing sugar together until smooth, add the vanilla extract and milk and beat again. Once the cake is cooled, crumble into large crumbs. Add the butter cream and stir together. Take chunks of the cake mixture and roll into balls, transferring each ball to a lined tray or plate, push a lollypop stick into each, then put into the fridge for an hour to set.
• Melt the white chocolate in the microwave, blasting it and stirring at 10 seconds intervals until smooth. Tip the sprinkles into another bowl. Take each of the chilled cake pops and dip into the white chocolate, allowing it to drip off a little over the bowl. Dip into the sprinkles, then stand upright in a mug to dry at room temperature for an hour, or in the fridge for 30 mins.

EASIEST CAKE POPS EVER

• Form mixture into twenty four 1 1/2-inch balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet and secure a lollipop stick in each one. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
• While the cake pops are chilling, place candy melts in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until melted, 3 to 5 minutes.

IRISH CREAM CAKE POPS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. Cream sugar and butter together until light. Add eggs and vanilla to creamed mixture and beat until thoroughly mixed. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture alternately with milk and Irish Cream, beating well after each addition. Continue beating one minute. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool layers in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely. Crumble cake into small pieces in large bowl. Set aside. Irish Cream Frosting 6 tablespoons unsalted butter 3 cups confectioner's sugar, sifted 4-6 tablespoons of Bailey's Irish Cream Combine all 3 ingredients together until creamy and smooth. Use more Irish Cream if needed to get a consistency that is not too thick....but not too thin. You want it to be like it would be if you were going to spread it on a cake. Blend frosting into cake crumbs. As Bakerella states, it works best if you use your hands!! Shape into balls. I placed the stick in my cake balls and then put them in the freezer for a couple of hours (in hopes it would seize the candy coating up faster!) Remove from freezer and dip into melted candy melts. Sprinkle with Green and Gold sugars.
