Hi and welcome to our website!

Look no more and you are in the right place.
You can use leftover birthday cake or frozen cake from another occasion. For me I'm using cherry cake from Christmas, I had it frozen and when I needed it I removed it from the freezer and let it thaw before grating it up mix my blender.

You can also make a homemade vanilla cake or store bought cake, do what works best for you. You only need four cups for this recipe.
You can also buy a 50% off cake at your grocery store and use it for this recipe.
Mix in a bowl the ingredients for the cream cheese icing and take about one and half cups of icing for this recipe. Keep the rest for decorating the tops of the cake pops.
See how simple it is to make these delicious cake pops, I would always see them in the store and just loved them. But they are expensive to buy. But to make them it is affordable.
We hope you are still very excited to make these cake pops yourself. Your family will love them. If don't matter if you are using leftover cake or store bought you will love them.

Instructions
In a bowl with a mixer make your cream cheese icing, add cream cheese, confectioners sugar, butter and vanilla. Mix together until creamy.
Now in a blender of food processor grate the stale cake, you will need about four cups. You can use any type of cake or loaf. Leftover christmas cake, birthday cake, banana loaf or pound cake. 
After you grated the cake add to the bowl of icing and blend together with a mixer or by hand. When mixed, if firm make small cake balls or if soft put in the fridge for one hour to set.
Add water to a saucepan about quarter full. Place on the stovetop on a medium heat then place a heat proof glass bowl on top and add chocolate chips. This is called a double boiler method. Let slowly melt stirring occasionally.
You can also melt the chocolate chips in a bowl in a microwave for a few minutes, don’t over cook.
After make the cake pops the size you would like. Then dip in the chocolate one at a time. Place on a plate with a sheet of parchment paper.
Continue doing this until all done.
Roll in coconut, candies, sprinkles or topping of choice.
You can put a toothpick or lolly pop stick in each one before serving or keep on the try like they are.
Bonita’s Tips:
You can make a cake of choice and after at room temp, grate in small pieces.
You can use store bought cake and icing if you wish.
You can also use dark semi-sweet chocolate or leave it out.

These cake pops are lovely and make them with your kids or grandkids they would love it…Make them and let harden a little in the fridge before dipping them in your melted chocolate.
Take about 1 tbsp of mixer and place in your hand wearing gloves for less mess. Form into a small ball and place on a plate with a sheet of parchment paper. When all rolled put in the fridge to set a little firmer before dipping in melted chocolate.
You can melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or microwave oven. Don’t over cook it or it will harden. Slowly melt it just folding it to equally melt.

It’s a good thing I’m not having a chocolate craving at this very moment! Oh my!
Thank you Bonita and Raymond! The cherry cake sounds delicious. I have one of those little electric chopper/blender devices too. Never used it. But I see now I can use it for chopping up a cake!
