Instructions

Make the Cake Batter
1

a) Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4.

b) Line 2 8''/20cm round cake tins with baking paper.

c) In a large bowl, combine the cake mix with the eggs, water and vegetable oil (see pantry for all three amounts). 

d) Gently stir until fully incorporated, 2-3 mins.

Into the Oven
2

a) Divide the cake mixture between your lined cake tins and pop onto the middle shelf of your oven until risen and golden, 22-27 mins, or until a rounded knife inserted in the centre comes out clean. TIP: A few crumbs are okay!

b) Once baked, allow the cakes to cool for 10 mins before removing from the tins, then allow to cool completely.

Crumble the Cakes
3

a) With clean hands, crumble the cooled cakes into a large bowl and mix in 0.25 tsp salt.

b) With your hands, squash the cake together until it forms a malleable dough.

Shape the Pops
4

a) Using your hands, form the cake mixture into bite-sized balls. You will make approximately 25-30 cake pops.

b) Pop the cake pops onto a plate and into the fridge to firm up, 10-15 mins.

Chocolate Chip Time
5

a) Meanwhile, fill a measuring jug with hot water from your tap. Place the unopened packet of white chocolate chips into the hot water and set aside for 5 mins. Then, flip the packet upside down and leave for a further 5 mins.

b) Carefully lift the packet out of the water and massage to ensure all the chocolate chips have melted. If there are still unmelted chips, return to hot water until completely melted.

Serve Up a Festive Treat
6

a) Once melted, use kitchen scissors to snip off a small corner of the packet to create a small hole.

b) Drizzle the white chocolate over your cooled cake pops, to resemble the cream on top of a Christmas pudding, letting the chocolate drip down the side of the cake pop.

c) Roughly chop the cranberries, then sprinkle them over the melted white chocolate to finish.

d) Store your pop cakes in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 3 days.

Enjoy!
