How to Make Passover Cake Pops with Your Kids:

Baking these Chocolate Covered Vanilla Cake Pops is super easy to do with children. To start, prepare all the ingredients in separate nesting bowls, or measuring cups. This way, they are ready for the kids to pour into one large mixing bowl. Also, make sure you have a whisk ready for them.

Following this, prepare your cake pop machine by plugging it in and warming it up. Or, if you are using a cake pan to make your cake pops, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

After this, mix the vanilla cake mix ingredients very well. Pour about one tbsp of the mixture into each cake pop mold and wait for 5 minutes until they are ready. When baking in the oven, wait 8 minutes. The baking time may vary based on your pop make machine and the type of mold you are using, but these times have worked for me.

Passover Cake Pop Recipe Tips & Tricks:

While this recipe is relatively simple, I am definitely a perfectionist. Here are some tips:

• Be sure to add a little oil or coconut baking spray to the molds so the cake batter does not stick when you try to take them out to eat.
• Feel free to get creative with your chocolate choices! Personally, we used chocolate bar with almonds for an added texture and added a teaspoon of coconut oil. Otherwise, melted chocolate work best.
• To ensure your cake pops stick to the lollipop sticks, dip them first in the melted chocolate and then stick it in the center of the cake ball. This adds a little extra chocolate to boot!
• You will need about a cup and a half of melted chocolate. I like to use narrow cups or coffee cups. This way, you are not wasting any chocolate.
• The best way to keep the shape of the balls is by letting them cool right side up. We used a paper bowl and made holes. Funny enough, we also ended up using Play-Doh as holders. We rolled out a ball and stuck the lollipop sticks in the roll. (Be careful, because Play-Doh can transfer color onto white sticks).

I love that this recipe allows me to get creative with my kids. There are so many different topping options you can choose from to elevate your sweet treats. Plus, your kids have so much fun doing this. You will have your own mini chef running around the house. Here is what you can top them with to have some fun:

• Rainbow Sprinkles
• Chocolate Sprinkles
• Coconut Flakes
• Mini Chocolate Chips
• Walnuts
• Pecans
• A Chocolate Drizzle

And there you have it! You are officially ready to get started. Check out the complete recipe below and get baking!
