CHRISTMAS RED VELVET CAKE POPS

Cake pops is a grate way to use up any remains of a cake or cupcakes. Here I have used some Red Velvet cupcakes to make these wonderful cake pops.

Ingredients :

• ready baked red velvet cake
• cream cheese
• chocolate of choice
• food coloring of choice

Crumble up your red velvet cake finely. Depending on how much cake you are using, add a few spoons of cream chees so the cake becomes sticky. I have used about 10 red velvet cupcakes and added about 2 tbsp of cream cheese.

The perfect consistency is when you can form balls which keep their shape. Use your hands to do so.

After forming balls (or shape of your choice), place them in the fridge for 15 minutes to let them firm up.

In a small bowl melt the chocolate (of your choice).

Take the cake pops out of the fridge, take a cake pop stick and dip it's end in the melted chocolate, then stick it into the cake pop about half way. Repeat with every cake pop, then place them in the fridge for another 15 minutes.

After that time take the cake pops out of the fridge and coat them in melted chocolate, tap them gently to get rid of the excess chocolate and place them horizontaly in a cup to dry. If you want your cake pops to be colorfull, add some food coloring to the melted chocolate.

Next you can decorate your cake pops any way you desire.

Have fun! :)
