Pop goes the poundcake



I needed a quick dessert for a gathering and after seeing the trend of little cake bites floating around other websites, I thought I'd do a little cheater's version of my own: Poundcake pops dipped in chocolate and sprinkles. 

It's pretty simple: cut a store-bought poundcake into squares, dip into melted chocolate, cover with sprinkles and stick a stick in 'em.  Easy! 


Why a cheater's version?  Because let's be honest, it was an act in and of itself for me to find the double boiler just to melt the chocolate.

  1. WOW - this is such a good idea! Definitely going to remember these for holiday gatherings and impromptu social events (that sounds so much better than playdates).

  2. I don't think that's cheating, it's being very, very clever. They look so yummy and fally!

  3. ok, that is totally clever! I love it! I am not a big icing or chocolate person (gasp! ... well I heart chocolate cake)... but I do have to say - I can't believe you'll do the pound cake but you won't do the pound cake of the cookie world (shortbread)

    hugs! Kim @ Frost Me!
