Cake Pops!

As promised, here are some pictures of the "little something something" I made for my boyfriend on our 16 months anni: Cake Pops!

Yes, those are my boyfriend's hands holding his cake pops <3

This was my 1st time making these, but it was pretty simple: I gently blended half of the remaining vanilla cake in a mixer so that the cake was in crumbles. Then I added some chocolate frosting until it was good enough to roll into little balls. (It may have been better to use vanilla frosting since it was a vanilla cake, but chocolate frosting was what I had. It ended up looking like marble cake though, which is pretty cool, I guess.) Then I stuck the cake balls in the freezer. In the meantime, I started melting semi-sweet chocolate and dipped some sticks into the chocolate and pierced the cake balls. I put that back in the freezer and melted more chocolate. Having the sticks stick nicely in the cake balls, I covered the cake balls in melted chocolate and then stuck the stick into a styrofoam block for the now cake pops to harden nicely in the fridge. And voila!

 P.S. Can you tell how tired I look? I stayed up late studying as I had part 1 of that test worth 25% the next day (although at that time, I thought I was doing the full test... it's a long story...)
