Instructions
Silver Skull Directions
- Dust your hands and the fondant mold with cornstarch.
- Work the silver fondant to where it becomes soft.
- Pinch off about 1 tbsp of the silver fondant and mold it into the skull.
- Remove and place onto the cookie sheet.
- Allow to air dry overnight.
Cupcake Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a cupcake pan with liners.
- Using a large bowl, beat together the cake mix, milk, butter, and eggs until combined and smooth.
- Fill the cupcake liners 3?4 way full.
- Bake in the oven for 21 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely.
- Once the cupcakes have cooled, remove them from their cupcake liners and crumble them into a large mixing bowl.
Making The Cake Pops
- Once all the cupcakes have been crumbled into a moist sand-like texture, scoop in about 1?4 – 1?2 C of the vanilla frosting.
- Using either your hands or a rubber spatula, mix the frosting into the crumbs until a dough-like mixture forms.
Decorating Directions
- Using a microwave, melt the black candy melts in 30-second increments, mixing after each time to ensure smooth melted candy melts.
- Once the candy melt is melted, spoon about 1-2 tbsp of the melted candy melts into the cake pop molds.
- Move the mold around to ensure the sides are coated in the candy melts.
- Place the mold into the fridge for about 10 minutes.
- Once the chocolate is set, remove from the fridge.
- Take about 1-2 tbsp of the cake mixture and carefully press it into the mold, making sure the side of the candy melt does not break.
- Remelt the leftover black candy melt.
- Once remelted, spoon about 1-2 tbsp of the chocolate onto the top of the cake mixture into the mold.
- Place mold back into the fridge for another 30 minutes.
- Carefully remove the cake pops from the mold.
- Place onto a cookie sheet.
- Repeat the steps with the remaining cake dough.
- Melt about 1 C of the white candy melts using a small bowl.
- Once melted, scoop into the piping bag and cut the tip off.
- Drizzle white chocolate onto the cake pop.
- Sprinkle the sprinkles and place a silver skull and a few eyes onto the cake pop.
- Allow to dry before enjoying.
