Idahoan Potato Chocolate Cake Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Using a stand mixer, blend all dry ingredients together. Add the butter, water and eggs to the dry mixture and blend.
• To make Cake Pops: You will need a cake pop pan (can be found at Bed Bath and Beyond or Amazon.com), and 6-inch sucker sticks and a foam block (like a floral block) to allow pops to cool and set while decorating.
• Spray pan release on the cake pop pan. Add cake batter to the fill line of each hole.
• Secure the top of the cake pop pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool 10-15 minutes. Remove the top of the cake pop pan and gently run a butter knife around each cake pop to help release. Set cake pops aside.
• To make candy coating: Melt a 12 ounce bag of semisweet chocolate chips, and or white chocolate chips in a microwave, stirring often. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil if coating is too thick after microwaving.
• Prepare bowls with toppings. Dip the end of each stick in chocolate coating and press into one end of a cake pop.
• When all the cake pops have sticks, place them in a freezer for 10-15 minutes to set the chocolate (this will help hold the sticks in place while dipping into additional coating).
• When pops have chilled, dip each pop in chocolate coating, taking care to seal the chocolate around the base of the stick.
• Decorate with desired sprinkles and chocolate drizzles.
• Set each pop into the floral block to let set.
