While spending Christmas at my grandma's house, I thought it would be fun to make cake pops with my brother and little cousins. I love reading Bakerella's blog (well more like I love looking at the pictures and never read the actual instructions!).
First I baked a cake...
Then I broke it up (hint, you're supposed to wait until it's completely cooled...which I did not!).
Next I added some frosting (again, I did this while hot...mistake!).
Then I formed the cake/frosting mix into balls and froze them (no picture, but this was also the incorrect way to do it).
While they were in the freezer I put some chocolate on the ends of the lollypop sticks and let them set (you're supposed to put them straight into the unfrozen cake balls and then freeze them...opps!).
Next, I burned the chocolate...probably should have used a real double boiler!
And then we decorated!
And ate them with a fork in a bowl!
After all this, I actually read the directions! If you want to make real cake pops, I suggest following Bakerella's directions BEFORE you start making them!
