Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box red velvet cake mix
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 can (12 oz) cream cheese frosting
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for melting chocolate)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a round cake pan according to the instructions on the cake mix box.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until smooth using an electric mixer.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Crumble the cooled cake into fine pieces into another bowl.
- Add the cream cheese frosting to the crumbs and mix until fully combined.
- Form small balls (about 1 inch) and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- While chilling, melt the white chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in intervals and stirring until smooth.
- Dip the end of a cake pop stick into the melted chocolate and insert it into each cake ball.
- Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate and let any excess drip off before placing back on the parchment paper.
- Sprinkle toppings while the chocolate is still wet and let them set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
- Enjoy your red velvet cake pops!
