[ENG] Lemon or Chocolate Cake Pops


Recipe adapted after testing
Originally from 'Yuki Sunaneko' who posted it in a forum on Chefkoch

♡Ingredients


For Lemon Cake Pops
150 g (1 1/4 cups) flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
125 g (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) sugar
1 egg
75 ml (1/3 cup) vegetable oil
75 ml (1/3 cup) Sprite
300 g (10 oz) white chocolate, 
Sprinkles (heart or star shape, 
colorful ones, or anything at your choice) for dipping

For Chocolate Cake Pops
150 g (1 1/4 cups) flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
125 g (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) sugar
1 egg
75 ml (1/3 cup) vegetable oil
35 g (1/4 cup) cocoa powder (in addition)
90 ml (1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon) milk (instead of Sprite)
300 g (10 oz) milk chocolate, for dipping (instead of white chocolate)



♡How To

Mix all ingredients (except for the chocolate). Fill into prepared cake pop mold. 
Bake in preheated oven at 180°C (355°F) for 20 minutes.
Let cool before opening the mold and taking out the cake pop balls.
Melt chocolate, dip sticks into chocolate before inserting into balls. Coat all cake pops with melted chocolate and decorate with sprinkles or glitter.

My Modifications:
I made the lemon cake pops first and I wouldn't make them again. This recipe might be nice for muffins or even a cake but the Sprite makes it too fluffy for cake pops. It was a lot of trouble to get them out of the pan in one piece, then onto the sticks in one piece, and covered in chocolate without falling apart. They did taste good though.
The chocolate ones I created myself and they were a lot more dense than the lemon ones (but still moist enough) so they were a lot easier to get out of the pan and to cover with chocolate.
