Cake pops
From cake crumbs to balls
Basic cake pops recipe
Makes 12 cake pops
70 g soft butter
70 g castor sugar
1 egg
75 g flour
big pinch of baking powder
40 g cream cheese (full fat)
70 g sieved icing sugar
butter for the tin
1Pre-heat the oven to 160 °C (Gas Mark 2.5, fan oven 140 °C) and butter a small loaf tin (approx. 18 cm long).
2Whisk together the butter and sugar until fluffy, then add the egg and combine well. Stir together the flour and baking powder and gradually add to the wet mix.
3Spoon the mix into the tin and bake the cake in the middle of the oven for about 15 minutes. Leave in the tin for about 30 minutes until cool, then turn it out and place on a cooling rack until completely cool.
4Stir together the cream cheese and icing sugar until well combined. Cut the hard crusts off the cake, then crumble the rest of the cake with your hands. Combine the cream cheese and cake crumbs and shape this mixture into 12 balls. Place the balls in the refrigerator for about 1 hour until firm – or put them in the freezer if you’re short of time!
5For a dark cake, use only 60 g flour and stir 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder into the cake mix at the end.
6Attach the cake balls to cake pop sticks when they are completely cool. It is a good idea to dip a few centimetres of the sticks in icing or chocolate glaze first, then insert them to that depth in the balls. This will help the balls to stay on the sticks. Once the glue
has dried, you can serve the cake pops.
