Instructions
- Re-heat oven to 350°F but then turn down to 325°F right before baking.
- Cream together butter and sugar on high for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Add one egg at a time and mix between additions.
- In a separate bowl combine vanilla buttermilk and food coloring and set aside.
- In a medium bowl sift the flour, corn starch, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder and set aside.
- Alternate adding the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture, mixing between each addition. Start and end with the flour.
- Finally, add the HOT coffee and stir gently into the batter, DO NOT miss this step.
- Spray two 9” Cake pans with cooking spray and divide the cake batter evenly between the two pans.
- Place into pre-heated oven for 15 minutes or until inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and while hot place into a bowl and add the frosting and mix well until the dough comes together.
- Scoop even sized balls and roll them on a cookie sheet. I measured mine and they were 22g per cake pop.
- Place into the freezer for 30 -60 minutes. You want them cold not completely frozen.
- Remove from freezer and set aside.
- Melt the white chocolate in 30 second increments in the microwave until completely melted.
- Dip the end of the stick in the white chocolate and insert it into the cake ball and repeat for the remaining cake pops.
- To make it easy, pour the white chocolate into a tall glass.
- Take each assembled cake pop and dip them into the white chocolate and place upside down on the parchment paper and allow to dry.
- Decorate how you would like and ENJOY every bite!
