Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Cake pop sticks

Ingredients
  

For the Cake Pops

  • 1 red velvet cake baked and cooled
  • 120 g cream cheese frosting

For the Coating

  • 300 g white chocolate melted

Instructions
 

  • Crumble the cooled red velvet cake into a mixing bowl.
  • Mix the cake crumbles with the cream cheese frosting until the mixture is cohesive and holds its shape.
  • Roll the mixture into small, uniform balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 60 minutes until firm.
  • Dip the tip of each cake pop stick into the melted white chocolate and insert it about halfway into a chilled cake ball. Return to the refrigerator briefly to set the chocolate holding the stick.
  • Dip each cake pop completely into the remaining melted white chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  • Place the dipped cake pops upright in a holder or on parchment paper. Let the chocolate harden completely before you serve them.

Notes

I refine red velvet recipes because small adjustments make a difference in texture and color. This recipe uses pre-baked cake for speed.
