Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/3 cups water
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 bag (16 oz) white candy melts
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Green candy melts
  • Black edible marker
  • Green edible marker
  • Assorted candy eyeballs
  • Cake pop sticks

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, water, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes until well combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely.
  • Once cooled, crumble the cakes into a bowl.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined.
  • Add the melted white candy coating to the crumbled cake and mix until it forms a dough-like consistency.
  • Roll the cake mixture into 1-inch balls. Insert a cake pop stick into each ball.
  • Chill the cake pops in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Melt the green candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  • Dip each cake pop into the melted green candy, ensuring it is fully coated. Let excess drip off.
  • While the green coating is still wet, attach two candy eyeballs to each cake pop.
  • Use the black edible marker to draw small pupils onto the candy eyeballs to give them a more monstrous look.
  • Use the green edible marker to add veins or other details to the eyeballs if desired.
  • Place the decorated cake pops on parchment paper to set completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your cake pops are fully chilled before dipping for a smoother coating.
  • Work quickly when dipping to prevent the candy coating from setting too fast.
  • You can use different colored candy melts for a variety of monster eyeballs.
