How to prepare Ghost Cake Pops

To make the ghost cake pops, first prepare the cake batter: place the softened butter and sugar in a large bowl 1, then work with electric beaters. When the mixture is combined, add the eggs, continuing to mix 2. Then add 3 oz of condensed milk 3 and mix everything together.

Sift the natural vanilla 4, baking powder, and flour 5 into the bowl a little at a time. Incorporate the powders with a spatula to obtain a homogeneous mixture 6.

Pour the batter into a 6-inch diameter pan that you have previously buttered 7, level the surface with the back of a spoon 8, and bake in a preheated convection oven at 340°F for 45 minutes. When the cake is cooked, remove from the oven and let cool 9.

Once cooled, remove the cake from the pan and crumble it roughly into a bowl 10. Add the remaining 5 oz of condensed milk 11 and knead with your hands to compact the mixture 12.

Take portions of about 1 oz and mold the dough to obtain a rather irregular triangular shape, reminiscent of a little ghost 13. Place the ghosts on a tray and insert a stick into the bottom 14, then place them in the freezer: with these quantities, you should obtain about 20. Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave 15.

Take the ghosts out of the freezer and dip each one into the melted chocolate until fully covered 16. Finally, decorate as desired with the sugar eyes 17. Your ghost cake pops are ready to be served 18!

Storage

The ghost cake pops can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 days.

Tip

You can decorate the ghosts as you like by changing the type of chocolate or the shape of the sugar decorations!
