- Spray 6" round cake pan or muffin tin with non-stick spray. Pour cake batter into pan or into six muffin compartments. Bake for 15 minutes.
- While cake is baking, in a small bowl combine ingredients for frosting until mixture is smooth. You can add sprinkles, but this is optional.
- When cake is done baking and cooled, in a medium bowl break up into small pieces (use a fork if needed). Add frosting to cake mixture and mix until blended.
- Form cake and frosting mixture into small 2" balls, place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or sprayed with non-stick spray. Insert cake pop sticks into each cake pop. Freeze for 30-minutes.
- While cake pops freeze, melt white chocolate baking chips and coconut oil together. When melted, add a couple drops of red food coloring to turn the coating red or pink. This is your coating. You can add more of this mixture if you want your coating thicker.
- When cake pops are cooled, dip each cake pop into coating. Add sprinkles or other toppings. Enjoy.
