Step 1
Crumble the cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl. You should have about 3 cups loosely packed.
Step 2
Add frosting and stir until the mixture holds together when squeezed. It should feel like damp sand.
Step 3
Roll the mixture into 12 balls about the size of walnuts. Place them on parchment paper.
Step 4
Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
Step 5
Dip the tip of each stick into melted chocolate, then push it halfway into a cake ball. Let set 30 seconds.
Step 6
Dip each pop into chocolate, twirl to coat, tap off excess, then immediately roll in sprinkles. Serve.
