DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE POPS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add in eggs, coffee, milk, oil, vinegar, and mint extract to the flour mixture. Mix well until smooth (should be a little runny). Pour into cake pop maker. Bake for 1 to 2 minutes or until toothpick comes out dry. Cool on wire racks. COATING: After the cake balls are cooled, place them in the freezer for about 15 minutes until they get a little more firm. Dip the tip of lollipop stick into the candy coating or chocolate of your choice (Candy Melts from Michael's work well), then stick into the cake balls. Place them back in the freezer for another 15 minutes to set the sticks. Then dip them into the candy coating or chocolate. If you want, you may add sprinkles, nuts, candy or other decorative toppings. Let them dry and they are ready to eat!

CHOCOLATE CAKE POPS

Steps:

• Preheat a cake pop maker and brush with oil.
• Whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; beat in buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat coffee into batter until evenly incorporated.
• Fill each reservoir of prepared cake pop maker with about 1 tablespoon batter.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake pop comes out clean, about 4 minutes; remove cake pops and allow to cool completely.

DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Grease and flour two 9 inch round baking pans or one 13x9 inch pan.
• In large mixer bowl, stir together dry ingredients.
• Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
• Stir in boiling water by hand (batter will be thin). NOTE: I have tried it with 1/2 cup, 2/3 cup and 3/4 cup boiling water and we prefer it with less than 1 cup water. I usually use between 2/3 & 3/4 cups. The cake is still very moist but it doesn't seem to "fall" as much as it cools. This might have to do with our high humidity or brand of flour or other factors so I don't know if it will work for everyone.
• Pour into prepared pan.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes for round 9-inch pans, 35 to 40 minutes for rectangular pan or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. (Do not use 8-inch pans or the batter will overflow.).
• Because they have a tendency to overflow if you fill them more than 2/3 full, I usually get about 27-28 cupcakes per batch. Bake for approximately 18-20 minutes.
• Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to wire racks.
• Please note: baking cocoa isn't hot chocolate drink mix! Baking cocoa contains no sugar and it is found on the baking aisle. Chocolate drink mixes that you add to milk or water to drink WILL NOT work in this recipe.

CHOCOLATE POPS

Steps:

• Crush the chocolate into smithereens in the food processor. Heat the cream and milk until just about boiling, add the vanilla and allspice and pour through the funnel over the chocolate. Let stand for 30 seconds. Process for 30 seconds, then crack the egg down the funnel and process for 45 seconds.
• Pour into whatever little cups you're serving in, and sit them in the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight. But remember to take them out of the refrigerator a good 20 minutes before you want them to be eaten; the chill interferes with their luscious, silky richness.
• This makes 2 cups altogether: enough to fill 8 little pots of approximately 1/4 cup capacity. But if you've got only bigger cups, just augment quantities.
