Ingredients
Cake Pops:
1 box of your favorite cake mix
1/3 cup of water
1/3 cup of vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 cup of Thanksgiving-themed sprinkles
1 package of candy coating
20-24 cake pop sticks
Frosting:
1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
2 cups of powdered sugar
1 tsp of vanilla extract
2-3 tbsp of milk
Orange food coloring
Instructions
1. Bake the Cake
Start by following the instructions on the cake mix box to bake the cake. Once the cake is done, let it cool completely before moving on to the next step.
2. Crumble the Cake
In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine pieces. Add in the Thanksgiving-themed sprinkles and mix well.
3. Make the Frosting
In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Add in 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until the frosting reaches a smooth consistency. Add in a few drops of orange food coloring to give the frosting a festive touch.
4. Combine Cake and Frosting
Add the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until well combined. The mixture should be moist enough to hold its shape when rolled into a ball. If it's too dry, add a little more frosting; if it's too wet, add more cake crumbs.
5. Roll into Balls
Using your hands, roll the cake and frosting mixture into small balls. Place them on a lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
6. Melt the Candy Coating
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the candy coating according to the package instructions. Make sure to stir the coating every 30 seconds until it is completely melted and smooth.
7. Assemble the Cake Pops
Remove the cake balls from the refrigerator and dip one end of a cake pop stick into the melted candy coating. Insert the stick into a cake ball, about halfway through. Repeat with the remaining cake balls.
8. Dip in Candy Coating
Holding onto the stick, dip each cake pop into the melted candy coating, making sure it is completely covered. Gently tap off any excess coating and place the cake pop back onto the lined baking sheet.
9. Decorate and Serve
Before the candy coating hardens, decorate the cake pops with additional Thanksgiving-themed sprinkles. Let the cake pops dry completely before serving.
