Ingredients

  • 2 cups store-bought cake (any flavor), crumbled
  • ½ cup canned frosting
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening
  • ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles
  • 12 count lollipop sticks or wooden picks

Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix crumbled cake and frosting in a bowl until the mixture looks like wet sand and holds together when squeezed.

  2. 2

    Roll the mixture into 12 balls, each about the size of a walnut. Chill on a plate for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Microwave chocolate chips and coconut oil together for 90 seconds, stirring halfway. The mixture should be smooth and pourable.

  4. 4

    Dip the tip of each stick into chocolate, then push it into a cake ball about halfway. Chill for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Dip each cake pop into the chocolate, twisting gently to coat all sides. Let excess drip off.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle the wet chocolate with rainbow sprinkles, then stand upright in a dessert cup or tall glass to set for 2 minutes.
