Description
Homemade Patriotic 4th Of July Cakesicles are easy and festive treats perfect for celebrating Independence Day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups vanilla cake crumbs (about 1 whole baked cake)
- 1 cup cream cheese frosting
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- Red and blue sprinkles
- Popsicle sticks
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the vanilla cake crumbs and cream cheese frosting. Mix until well combined and the mixture holds together when pressed.
- Using your hands, form the cake mixture into small rectangles, about 2 inches long and 1 inch wide. Insert a popsicle stick into each rectangle and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 1 hour until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips and coconut oil together in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Dip each frozen cakesicle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off, then place the cakesicle back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle red and blue sprinkles on top of each cakesicle for a festive touch. Let the chocolate harden at room temperature or refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
- Once the chocolate is set, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
- For a chocolate version, substitute chocolate cake crumbs and chocolate frosting.
- You can also use colored candy melts instead of white chocolate for a more vibrant look.
