Ingredients

Red Velvet Cake Crumbs

2 cups red velvet cake crumbs Use leftover cake from a baked 9-inch round red velvet cake.
1 cup cream cheese frosting Adds moisture and sweetness, binding the cake crumbs together.
8 ounces white chocolate Chopped into small pieces for coating.
1 tablespoon vegetable oil Helps to thin the melted chocolate.
sprinkles or edible glitter For decoration.
lollipop sticks Essential for holding the cake pops.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. Mix dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in another. Gradually combine and pour into the pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes and let cool.
Crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs using your hands or a fork.
Mix the crumbled cake with cream cheese frosting until fully combined.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Add vegetable oil to thin the chocolate.
Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate, insert into a cake ball, then dip the cake pop into the chocolate and decorate before it sets.

Notes

Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Chill the cake balls properly before dipping.
