I was asked by a friend if I would make some cake pops for the high school to auction off... forget what they were raising money for... anywho... YES! of course I will. Really good that she sent me a message a couple days before the auction reminding me! whew.
The auction was held a few days before Halloween.... pumpkins pop into my head. I researched and found what seemed to be a killer pumpkin spice cake recipe. Next time I'm on time crunch I will not be trying out a new recipe.
Didn't turn out exactly how i would have liked and at one point I thought about throwing it across the room... :) then the thought of cleaning that up and starting over quickly brought me back to reality.
Busted out the seriously rich recipe for cream cheese frosting... mmm. These are the moments I curse being lactose intolerant... on the flip side I saved myself a heaping of calories! ;)
Pumpkin spice cake... crumbled then mixed with cream cheese frosting. Dunked in chocolate and sprinkled with orange sugar.
One of them got stuck to the other and when we pulled them apart it pretty much destroyed it... oops. Guess that means Aaron gets one! ;) He thought they were delicious. I mean, who doesn't think cake pops are delicious at 2:30am when you are delirious from lack of sleep and can't stop laughing from time to time.
Finished product :)
