FUDGY CAKE POPS

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 12 pops

Number Of Ingredients 22

Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch kosher salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 large eggs
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 pound dark chocolate chips
1 pound white chocolate chips
1/4 cup small candy eyes
1 small bottle red food coloring
1/2 cup small black nonpareils
1/2 cup small orange nonpareils

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a quarter sheet tray with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Reserve.
  • Combine the granulated sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat until light and fluffy. Turn the mixer off and scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time. Slowly add the sour cream, milk and vanilla. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. With the mixer on medium speed, gradually mix in the flour mixture.
  • Spread the batter onto the sheet tray and bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • For the cream cheese frosting: Beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, vanilla and lemon juice in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Set aside.
  • Place the cake into a food processor and pulse to crumble. Transfer to a bowl, then add 2 cups of the frosting and stir to combine. Take some of the cake and frosting mixture and roll into a ball, roughly the size of a golf ball. Insert a candy stick into the center. Place onto a parchment-lined sheet tray. Repeat with remaining cake and frosting mixture, to make about 12 pops. Place into the freezer to chill for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • For the decorating: Set up 2 double boilers with a glass bowl fit over the top of each. Add the dark chocolate to one bowl, and the white chocolate to the other. Gently melt the dark and white chocolate over the double boilers, stirring frequently to ensure the chocolate is not burning on the bottom of the bowls.
  • For the white chocolate eyeball cake pops: Dip half of the chilled cake pops into the white chocolate, rotating to make sure they are fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off. Place right-side up into a piece of Styrofoam and stick one candy eye into the center of the cake pop. Repeat with remaining cake pops, transfer to the fridge to chill for 10 minutes.
  • Scoop 1/2 cup frosting into a small bowl and add 2 drops red food coloring. Mix to combine, then transfer into a pastry bag. Cut a very small amount off the tip, then pipe squiggly lines coming out from the candy eyes to resemble red veins.
  • For the chocolate-dipped cake pops: Take the other half of the cake pops and dip into the dark chocolate, making sure to fully coat the cake and allowing any excess to drip off. Roll immediately in the black and orange nonpareils. Place right-side up into a piece of Styrofoam, then into the fridge to chill.

Tips:

  • Use a dark-colored baking dish to help the bars bake evenly.
  • Be sure to grease and flour the baking dish before adding the batter, to prevent the bars from sticking.
  • If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking dish, you can use two 8x8 inch baking dishes instead.
  • If you want a fudgier texture, use a chocolate cake mix instead of a vanilla cake mix.
  • Add in your favorite mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit, to customize the bars.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them into squares, to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These easy fudgy cake mix bars are a delicious and decadent treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their rich chocolate flavor and gooey texture, they're sure to be a hit at any party or gathering. And because they're so easy to make, you can whip up a batch in no time. So next time you're craving a sweet treat, give these fudgy cake mix bars a try. You won't be disappointed!
