Easy Super Smooth Cake Pop Dough

FAIL PROOF VANILLA CAKE POP DOUGH

See Reel  Here

Ingredients:

  • 1 box Dolly Parton Vanilla Cake Mix (or similar white/yellow cake mix)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 (8 oz) cup sour cream
  • 1 box instant Jell-O pudding mix (vanilla)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tsp vanilla (optional)
  • Pre-cut parchment paper sheets (optional but handy)
  • Foil
  • 9x13" pan

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Line a 9" x 13" pan with parchment paper (no not oil paper).
  • Mix all ingredients with a mixer until smooth.
  • Pour into pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake about 10 minutes longer than the box suggests (the pudding mix makes it denser). Cover with foil the last 10 minutes.
  • Do not overbake. If you have a cake thermometer you will want to take your cake out when it has reached 210°.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes, then cover with foil or a dish towel.
  • While still warm and moist, crumble cake back into the mixer and blend into dough. (It may feel a little sticky at first but will settle into a play-dough consistency once cooled.)
  • Wrap dough in parchment paper and place inside a zip-top bag or airtight container.
  • Dough can be refrigerated overnight or frozen for later use.
  • Once cool, your dough is ready to roll into pops!

    How long does it need to be covered after the 10 minutes.
