Carrot Cake Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Coat a 9-by-13-inch pan with cooking spray. Prepare the cake mix, pour into the prepared pan and bake as directed. Let cool.
• Crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add the frosting and mix with your hands until well combined. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• With damp hands, form the crumbled cake mixture into 12 to 15 compact carrot-shaped logs, about 8 inches long. Put on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Carefully insert a skewer into each carrot, reshaping as needed. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Melt the orange and red candy melts together in a large bowl in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth.
• Transfer the melted candy to a shallow baking dish. Working quickly, dip the cake pops in the candy melts, turning to coat, then return to the baking sheet to set.
• Once set, use a skewer or toothpick to etch horizontal lines in the coating.
• Brush the carrots with cocoa powder, making sure it gets into the etched lines.
• Remove the skewers from the carrots. Use extra melted candy to attach a piece of green licorice to each; let set.

Steps:

• Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan, using water, oil and eggs and adding grated carrot. Cool. Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Crumble cake into large bowl. Add frosting; mix well. Shape into 1-inch balls; place on cookie sheet. Freeze until firm; keep refrigerated.
• In microwavable bowl, microwave candy melts and shortening uncovered on Medium (50%) 2 minutes, then in 15-second intervals, until melted; stir until smooth. Dip tip of 1 lollipop stick about 1/2 inch into melted candy and insert stick into 1 cake ball no more than halfway. Repeat. Return cake pops to cookie sheet. Refrigerate 5 minutes. Remove from refrigerator a few at a time. Dip each cake ball into melted candy to cover; tap off excess. Immediately dip top in walnuts, pressing to adhere. Poke opposite end of stick into foam block. Let stand until set.

Steps:

• Break the cake into a large bowl, crumble it until it is in fine crumbs.
• Add sweet condensed milk and mix until you form a dough.
• Open a small amount of dough and cover one brigadeiro in it, rolling until you form a ball.
• Add one stick into each ball and freeze for 15 minutes.
• Dip your cake pops into melted chocolate, covering them.
• Let it rest and add some sprinkles on them.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil a 20 x 5cm deep square tin and line with baking parchment. Mix all the ingredients for the cake together in a large bowl until well-combined. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 25-30 mins until golden, slightly risen and a skewer comes out cleanly when inserted in the middle. Set aside to cool completely in the tin.
• Meanwhile, beat the ingredients for the icing together with an electric whisk for 5 mins until pale and fluffy.
• Crumble the cooled cake into the bowl with the icing and beat with an electric whisk until the mixture comes together. Shape into 12 even-sized balls and place on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Chill the balls in the fridge for 30 mins to help them firm up.
• Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir until smooth and glossy, then remove from the heat. Push a lollipop stick into each cake ball and dip in the chocolate, using a spoon to help you coat the ball if needed. Carefully lay on the lined tray and stick a red sugar-coated chocolate on the front of each cake pop for a nose. Stick two pretzel halves into the top for antlers, then leave until the chocolate is fully set. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for five days.
