Ingredients
Method
- Prepare the cake according to package directions. Beat the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a bowl. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish or two 8x8-inch round cake pans and bake at 350°F until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool completely, then crumble it with a fork in a large bowl or the baking dish. Stir the frosting into the crumbled cake, cover, and freeze until chilled.
- Roll the mixture into evenly sized balls by hand and freeze until firm. Once frozen, roll the balls again to smooth the sides and place them on a baking sheet.
- Melt the candy melts in a microwave or double boiler. Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate, insert it into a cake ball, and return to the freezer until solidified.
- Gently dip the balls into the melted chocolate or spoon the chocolate over them, twirling to ensure an even coat. Decorate with sprinkles if desired and place upright in a styrofoam block or box to harden.
