Ingredients
- 200 g leftover madeira cake ( or any other sponge cake)
- ¼ cup condensed milk
- 100 g milk chocolate
- 50 g white chocolate
- Christmas sprinkles to decorate
Instructions
- Cut the leftover cake into cubes, and add them to a food processor.
- Blitz until you get breadcrumbs.
- Add the condensed milk and blitz again to get a sticky mixture.
- Use your hands to shape balls - I got 11, but you can get more or less, depending on the size of the balls.
- Break the milk chocolate into pieces, and add them to a bowl set over a pan with simmering water, that is set on a low heat.
- Melt the chocolate completely, then add the balls one by one and coat them well in chocolate.
- Transfer the chocolate-coated balls on a tray lined with non-stick paper, and leave to set completely.
- Break the white chocolate into pieces and melt it in the same way.
- Use a teaspoon to top each ball with a small dollop of white chocolate, then add the sprinkles.
- Leave to firm up completely before serving.

- I absolutely loved these Christmas Cake Pops, they were so delicious, and they kept fresh for many days before they were finally demolished - even if the cake was already 3-4 days old, the pops lasted well for 4-5 days after as well, just keep them refrigerated, and they will be fine.
- If you don't want to go for a Christmas pudding look, you can still get christmassy pops by adding Christmas sprinkles, it's amazing what a few sprinkles can do to transform anything into the best festive dessert.
- Alternatively, you can use marzipan or sugar paste to cut out hollies and berries, or any other festive decorations - the more, the merrier. And that's it, a fabulous Christmas dessert that will go down a treat with kids and grown-ups too!
