Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions, combining it with the necessary eggs and milk for added richness. Pour the batter into a greased baking pan and bake for 25–30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large mixing bowl. Use your hands to break it into fine crumbs, adding your chosen frosting until the mixture resembles a moist dough.
- Scoop out portions of the cake mixture and roll them into golf ball-sized balls. Place each ball on a lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the cake pop formations for at least 30 minutes to maintain their shape.
- Melt the chocolate coating in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth. Dip each cake pop into the chocolate, ensuring they are fully covered.
- Apply candy eyes to each cake pop while the chocolate coating is still wet. Use red icing to create bloodshot effects around the candy eyes.
- Place the cake pops upright in a styrofoam block or deep mug to set for about 30 minutes.
