Cake Pops!

I spent the day with my sister testing out this new idea I saw on my absolute
favorite website in the world!!!

They were created by Bakerella, who is amazing in the kitchen. She was even
featured on the Martha Stewart Show.

Anyway, I'm no Martha, Bakerella, and definitely no Pioneer Woman...
but I still had fun making them and taking the pictures.



We made a MESS! and suffered from major heartburn from all the chocolate,
but it was worth it.



(For complete directions on how to make Cake Pops, just click on the links above.)
I used Devil's Food Cake Mix, Vanilla Frosting, Dark & White Chocolate for melting,
Mini M&M's, and basic rainbow color sprinkles for decorating.











I plan on perfecting these little buggers in the near future :)



This little munchkin snuck up all on his own when I wasn't looking and
helped himself to all the goodies...



My sisters and one of their friends were the brave souls who tested them first...



they're still alive, so that's success enough for me :)



I liked this version best. I put the cake part in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes
then dipped only the top part in chocolate. It wasn't quite so overwhelmingly sweet
and I felt a little better about not getting gestational diabetes... :)
