CHRISTMAS CAKE POPS
Ingredients
- 400g/14oz Christmas cake
- 100g/3½oz dark chocolate
- 100g/3½oz white chocolate
- sprinkles
- to decorate
Directions
- Break the Christmas cake into pieces then blend in the food processor for a few minutes to turn into crumbs.
- Divide the mix into 12 and shape into balls. Place in the fridge for a couple of hours to firm up.
- Melt the chocolates in separate bowls
- over pans of simmering water or in a microwave.
- Make a hole in each ball with a lolly stick
- then dip the end of the stick in the melted chocolate and place back in the hole. Repeat with the other sticks and leave to set for about 30 minutes.
- Re-melt the chocolate if necessary
- then
- using a teaspoon pour the chocolate over a cake pop
- holding it over the bowl. Work quickly to get a smooth finish. Tap the cake pop on the side of the bowl to get rid of the excess chocolate
- then stick into a piece of polystyrene or upturned colander while you coat the rest of the pops.
- Once the chocolate has set slightly
- but is still sticky
- coat in sprinkles then leave to set completely.
