Title: Football Cake Pops
Categories: Cakes, Cheese, Nuts, Snacks
Yield: 4 Dozen

15 1/4 oz Box chocolate cake mix
1 c Cream cheese frosting
1 c Dark chocolate chips
1 c Peanut butter chips
1 tb Shortening
48 Lollipop sticks; 4" long
1/4 c White decorating icing

Bake cake according to package directions; cool completely. In a large
bowl, break cake into fine crumbles. Add frosting and stir until fully
incorporated, adding more frosting if needed, until mixture maintains
its shape when squeezed together with palm of hand. Shape 1 tablespoon
into a ball, then mold into the shape of a football. Repeat with
remaining mixture. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets; refrigerate
until firm, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, place chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and shortening
in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds and stir; repeat,
stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth, adding more
shortening if needed. Do not overheat.

Dip a lollipop stick into chocolate mixture; insert halfway through a
football shape, taking care not to break through the other side.
Return to baking sheet until set; repeat to form remaining cake pops.
Coat each cake pop with the chocolate mixture, allowing excess to
drip off; reheat and stir chocolate mixture as needed. Return cake
pops to baking sheets, ensuring they do not touch one another. Allow
chocolate coating to set until firm to the touch. To decorate, use
icing to draw laces onto cake pops.
