Ingredients
- 1 pkg (15.25 oz) white cake mix
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 cups icing sugar, sifted
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- 2 pkg (1 1/2 oz each) M&M’S® Peanut Ghoul's Mix
- 8 oz white candy melts, melted
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 12 large candy eyeballs
- 1 tube red gel icing
Instructions:
-
1 Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Crumble enough cake to make 3 cups (reserve remaining cake for another use).
-
2 Using electric mixer, beat butter until fluffy; beat in icing sugar, milk, vanilla and salt on low speed until smooth. Increase speed to high; beat for 1 to 2 minutes or until frosting is light and fluffy.
-
3 In large bowl, combine cake crumbles and frosting; beat until dough starts to form. Fold in M&M’S®. Divide into 16 portions; shape into balls. Transfer to parchment paper–lined tray. Freeze for about 15 minutes or until firm.
-
4 Combine melted candy melts and coconut oil; dip tips of lollipop sticks into candy melt mixture and insert into each ball. Freeze for about 5 minutes or until set. Dip cake pops into remaining candy melt mixture, gently shaking excess back into bowl.
-
5 Garnish each cake pop with candy eyeball; place in plastic foam to stand upright. Let stand for 30 to 60 minutes or until set. Pipe red gel icing around eyeball to resemble red veins for bloodshot eyeballs.
