Marshmallow Cake Pops
These Marshmallow Cake Pops are so adorable when you think it’s just a marshmallow on a stick, but you bite into cake!
Today is a special day for our friend Meaghan who blogs at The Decorated Cookie. She has been working hard and today her book Sugarlicious is released! When I think of Meaghan I think of marshmallows. She does amazing, artistic things with all kinds of sugar but she will forever be my go-to marshmallow girl. So when I was invited to celebrate with her today and throw her a surprise book release party I knew I wanted to do something with marshmallows. Deciding just what to do proved to be difficult.
First I bought these. It’s insanely cute, but not for today.
Then I made my husband find these for me. Nope. Not this time.
Should I just put them on a stick?
Yes. A stick. That’s what Meaghan would do. Maybe something classic? S’mores.
Yes. Chocolate and marshmallows = win!
But what is the fun in a surprise party
without a little
SURPRISE!?!
Were you surprised? I hope so! Yes, after purchasing every marshmallow product in the tri-state area, I finally decided on Marshmallow Cake Pops. And, of course, they had to be pink for Meaghan!
Instead of traditional frosting I used 2 heaping Tablespoons of MARSHMALLOW FLUFF to bring these babies to cake pop consistency. Y-U-M. Form into marshmallow shapes and dip into chocolate. Sticks or no sticks these are still a fun surprise.
Marshmallow Cake Pops Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 vanilla cake round, 8 or 9 inch (baked and cooled)
- 2 Tablespoons Marshmallow Fluff, or more or less to consistency
- 2 cups white chocolate
- 1 Tablespoon shortening
- Sprinkles, optional
Instructions
- Prepare and bake your cake according to package instructions and let cool completely (overnight, uncovered is best). I made mine in a 9×13 pan and used about half of the pan to make the cake pops.
- Crumble half of the cake and mix in 2 heaping Tablespoons of MARSHMALLOW FLUFF to bring to cake pop consistency (holds shape but is not sticky).
- Melt chocolate and add shortening to thin out.
- Form into marshmallow shapes and dip into chocolate. Sticks or no sticks these are still a fun surprise.
