RASPBERRY-CHOCOLATE CAKE POPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 8- or 9-inch round pan with shortening; lightly flour. In small bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. In medium bowl, beat 1/4 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed 30 seconds. Beat in granulated sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat 2 minutes longer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add egg whites, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. On low speed, alternately add flour mixture, one-third at a time, and milk, about one-half at a time, beating just until blended. Spread in pan.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes. Crumble warm cake into medium bowl.
• Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place chopped chocolate and 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon raspberry vodka in small bowl. In small microwavable bowl, microwave whipping cream and 2 tablespoons butter on High 1 minute or until boiling. Stir until butter is melted. Pour over chocolate mixture; stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. If necessary, microwave on High an additional 10 to 15 seconds until mixture can be stirred smooth. Pour into 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish; cover and refrigerate 1 hour. When firm, use melon baller to create 28 round truffle centers. Place on cookie sheet; refrigerate until needed.
• In medium bowl, beat 1/3 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually beat in powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons raspberry vodka on low speed until filling is smooth. Stir into crumbled cake until blended. Cover; refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until firm enough to shape.
• Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Roll cake mixture into 28 (1 1/2-inch) balls. On sheet of waxed paper, flatten each ball into 3-inch circle. Place truffle in center of each 3-inch circle. Quickly shape circle up and around truffle (overhandling can cause truffle to melt), pinching circle together to seal and sealing any cracks. Place on cookie sheet. Freeze 30 minutes.
• In 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, microwave dark chocolate candy melts as directed on package until melted. Remove several cake balls from freezer at a time. Dip top of each of 14 lollipop sticks into melted dark chocolate and insert 1 inch into each of 14 cake balls. Dip into melted candy to cover; very gently tap off excess. (Reheat candy in microwave or add vegetable oil if too thick to coat.) Place each cake ball in mini cupcake liner. Reserve remaining coating. Repeat with light cocoa candy melts and remaining cake balls. Let stand until set. Use remaining melted candy (remelt, if necessary) to drizzle dark chocolate over light cocoa cake pops and light cocoa over dark chocolate cake pops. Let stand until set, about 15 minutes.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY CAKE BALLS

Steps:

• 1. Prepare cake mix as instructed on box. Cool.
• 2. When cooled, crumble cake into a bowl, and mix in just enough frosting so the mixture binds and is easily rolled by hand into balls (I usually use half the container of frosting).
• 3. Add Raspberry liquor into frosting, stir well. Also add raspberry jam to your liking.
• 4. Roll into bite-sized balls, and freeze for an hour or two -or overnight (optional, but highly recommended, as it helps them hold shape when dipping, especially when using toothpicks. I'd say don't use a toothpick if you skip the freezer step.)
• 5. Lay cake balls across parchment paper.
• 6. In a microwaveable bowl, melt the candy bark as directed on package
• 7. Using a toothpick (cleaner results) or two forks, dip (or roll) balls in melted chocolate.
• 8. If frozen, work quickly to decorate right after dipping or coating will harden. If not frozen, they will not harden immediately and you can dip them all before decorating.
• 9. Once all coated, allow to harden. You may now package them however you like, such as: in goodie bags, in mini cupcake wrappers, etc!
• 10. If making cake pops, place each ball on stick and then freeze so they would be easier to handle when dipping into chocolate.
