Easter Peep Pops

Ingredients:
Cake and Frosting
Pastel Wild Flower Sprinkles
Diamond Shape Sprinkle
Cake Mix
White Candy Melts
Yellow Candy Melts
Paper Lollipop Sticks
Black Edible Ink Pen
Paramount Crystals
Styrofoam Block
Rainbow Candy Coated Chips


Instructions:

  • Bake the cake mix of your preference.
  • After cake is cooked  completely, crumble into large bowl.
  • Mix thoroughly with 1 can frosting. 
  • Roll mixture into quarter size balls and place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. (Should make 45-50)
  • Melt chocolate in the microwave per directions on package. (30 sec intervals, stirring in between.)
  • Dip the tip of your lollipop stick in a little of the melted candy coating and insert into the cake balls. (Insert a little less than halfway.)
  • Place them in the freezer for a little while to firm up.
  • Once firm, carefully insert the cake ball into the candy coating by holding the lollipop stick and rotating until covered. Once covered remove and softly tap and rotate until the excess chocolate falls off. Don’t tap too hard or the cake ball will fall off, too.
  • Place in a Styrofoam block to dry.
  • Once dry, draw faces with an edible ink pen and allow ink to dry!
  • Decorate faces as you wish.



This is always a fun activity to do for Easter with family and friends! Enjoy !
