One of the things my kids love to get when they go to a bake sale or to a birthday party is cake pops. Have you seen these? They are tiny cakes on a stick. Well as soon as you add anything to a stick it becomes more fun to eat. And these cake pops are filled with icing so of course, they are super yummy. They are also easy to make. Anyone can do it. This is a great dessert to get the kids in the kitchen because it is fun and they get to make a mess while playing with their food. Perfect. Everyone asks me how to make cake pops and they can not believe how easy it is.
