Ingredients
- Non-stick cooking spray
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- Vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup sprinkles, nuts, or other toppings
- Special Equipment: oven-safe popsicle forms or baking tins (recommended: Cake Lolli), popsicle sticks
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray the pop forms with non-stick spray. In the bowl of a mixer, beat together cake mix, water, eggs, and oil for 30 seconds on low speed. Turn speed to high and beat for an additional 2 minutes. Place 2 heaping tablespoons of cake batter into each form. Bake for approximately 12 minutes, or until cake is fully cooked. Remove from oven and invert immediately onto a cooling rack. Repeat with remaining cake batter. Cool cakes completely, and then push popsicle sticks about halfway into each cake. Stir ice cream until it is the consistency of frosting. Using a wide, flat knife or spatula and working quickly, frost cakes. Dip cake pops in sprinkles, nuts, or desired toppings and then place on a waxed paper lined baking sheet. As the cakes are frosted and decorated, place in the freezer to avoid melting.

This was so much fun to serve to my friends! First, I am not sure if this was supposed to be the small lolli-pop type molds, or the larger "Popsicle" molds. I used the Wilton cake popsicle cake mold from amazon.
I made the cakes, cooled them, inserted the popsicle sticks and then did something different than the recipe. I covered the tops of each cake with soft ice cream and then sprinkled with toppings (sprinkles, crushed Reese's pieces, and crushed oreos. When I tried to dip them, it made a mess and the ice cream started melting. Then, I quickly put them in the freezer a few at a time so they didn't melt, ice cream side up. After about an hour, I took them out of the freezer, turned them over and ice creamed and candied the other side. Finally, they went back into the freezer until fully frozen (I did 4 hours.
When they are fully frozen, the sticks stay in place and you can actually eat it like a popsicle, but you have to be very careful with the cakes until they are frozen.
