Ingredients

1 box cake mix
1 can of ready-made frosting
2-3 tablespoons of water
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
Lollipop sticks
Festive decorations (sprinkles, candy canes, etc.)

Instructions

Begin by preheating the oven to the temperature listed on the cake mix box. Prepare the cake mix according to the instructions on the box, adding the water, oil and eggs as directed. Once the batter is ready, pour it into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and bake for the amount of time listed on the box. Once the cake has finished baking, let it cool completely.

Once cooled, remove the cake from the pan and crumble it up into a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the prepared frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until combined. The mixture should be slightly sticky, so add additional frosting if needed. Using your hands, form the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Insert a lollipop stick into each cake ball. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden the cake balls. Remove the cake pops from the freezer and begin dipping them into melted chocolate. Place the cake pops back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and top with festive decorations.

Return the cake pops to the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Once set, transfer the cake pops to a serving plate and enjoy!
