Servings: 36 servings
Ingredients
- 1 chocolate or devils food cake mix
- 1/2 cup salted butter – melted
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/4 cup milk
- 6 Oreos - crumbled up into small bits
For the vanilla frosting:
- 1/4 cup salted butter – room temperature
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 tablespoons milk
- pinch of salt
- OR 1 cup premade vanilla frosting if wanting a store bought frosting
For the candy coating:
- 2 packages of white candy coating or white melting wafers or ~24 ounces white chocolate
- 3 Oreo's - remove the filling and just use the cookies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a large mixing bowl, add cake mix, melted butter, eggs and milk and blend until smooth.
- Pour into a greased 9 x 13 inch cake pan and bake according to package directions, usually around 34-38 minutes.
- Once cooked, allow to cool completely.
- If making these cake pops for friends and family, it is highly recommended that you grab some sterile gloves for this next part.
- Take the baked cake and add it to a large bowl, crumbling it up as you add it to the bowl. Add the crumbled Oreo pieces to the bowl and mix. Once the cake is nicely crumbed, set bowl aside and make the frosting.
- To make the vanilla frosting, add the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, milk and salt and using a whisk attachment on a mixer, beat together until frosting is smooth and fluffy.
- Add frosting a little at a time while mixing with the crumbles, once mixture can form a ball then stop adding frosting. I have found some chocolate cake mixes have more moisture than others so adjust the frosting according to the cake mix you made.
- Roll each ball into roughly 1 1/2 inch balls and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
- Freeze balls for roughly 30 minutes, longer if you can.
- While they are freezing, prepare for dipping the cake pops, by setting up a foam block or something that will hold your cake pops while they harden.
- Remove the filling from the Oreos and crush it up in a small bowl and set aside.
- Melt candy melts in the microwave, stirring between 30 second heating increments, continue heating until the candy coating is smooth.
- Dip the sucker or cookie stick in the candy coating and then place it into the bottom of your cake ball.
- Immediately dip and turn the cake pop in the warm candy coating until the cake pop is coated.
- Tap the stick portion of the cake pop on the side of the bowl with the candy coating in it to help remove the excess candy coating.
- When the coating is almost hardened, dip the top into the crush Oreo crumbs then place in foam block so the coating can harden fully.
- Serve once the candy coating gets a change to harden or keep in a airtight container in refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
- These can also be frozen in an airtight container and use when desired.
