Candy Cane Brownie Cake Pops

Candy Cane Brownie Cake Pops

Hey guys!  As I type this post, I am surrounded by hundreds of cookies and goodies from our most recent holiday baking exchange.  I can’t wait to package them all up and deliver them to friends and family during the holidays… if the boys and I don’t eat them all first *wink*.  These Candy Cane Brownie Cake Pops are a byproduct of my contribution to this years baking exchange…

These cake pops are AHmazing because they seriously taste so good.  They were the result of a recipe malfunction!  Ha ha.  This year I decided to make Candy Cane Brownies for our annual baking exchange.  After pulling the first batch out of the oven I made the mistake of trying to take the brownies out of the pan before they were completely cool.  They fell apart.  I was left with an entire pan full of moist, delicious broken brownies.

What do you do with broken candy cane brownies?  Make these Candy Cane Brownie Cake Pops of course!

I made a trip to Michaels and picked up Candy Cane Candy Melts, lollipop sticks and crushed candy cane bits.  Then I simply assembled the cake pops.

How to make these candy cane brownie cake pops:

  • Roll walnut sized balls from the cooked brownie.
  • Melt peppermint candy melts in a microwave safe dish, add oil and mix well.
  • Dip the tip of the lollipop stick in chocolate and insert half way into brownie ball.
  • Carefully dip the entire ball into the chocolate and coat completely.
  • Dip the cake pop into crushed candy cane bits (optional).
  • Place into a styrofoam tray to set.
