Ingredients
125g butter
150g golden caster sugar
2 eggs
3tbsp milk
175g self raising flour
100g vanilla frosting, plus 1tbsp extra
200g Asda White Chocolate
50g white ready to roll icing
Dr. Oetker Shimmer Spray Gold
18 cake pop sticks
Method
1Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4.
Line a large cake tin.
2In a bowl, cream the butter and caster sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in each egg slowly, one at a time, then beat in the milk and flour.
3Pour the cake mixture into the lined tin. Bake for 40 mins or until the top springs back when lightly pressed. Turn out and leave to cool on a wire rack.
4Crumble the cake into a bowl and mix with the frosting. Shape into 18 balls and chill for at least 1 hr, then carefully put each one on a cake pop stick.
5Melt the white chocolate and dip the cake pops in, one at a time – make sure they’re coated all over. Leave aside until completely set.
6Meanwhile, roll out the white icing, cut into pairs of wings, and use the tip of a cocktail stick to mark on the ‘feathers’. Stick to each cake pop with a dab of the extra frosting. Leave to set hard for 30 mins.
7When set, spray the cake pops and wings with the sparkly gold shimmer. Allow to dry, then serve.
