- 1 Pre-made pound cake loaf
- 4-5 Tablespoons Frosting of choice
- 1 bag Light brown candy melts
- Mini pretzel twists
- Red m&m's
- Edible eyeball candies
Break the cake into large pieces and mix in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until it forms course crumbs. Add the frosting a little bit at a time until everything comes together into a dough that isn't sticky.
Press the dough into cakesicle molds and insert a mini popsicle stick. Freeze until firm.
Meanwhile, gently melt the candy melts in 30 second intervals in the microwave and transfer to a tall glass.
Once the cakesicles are frozen, remove from the mold and ip in the candy melts and allow to set in the fridge.
Once the candy melt coating has set, use any leftover melted candy melts to stick on the decorations: 2 halved Pretzels for antlers, 2 eyes and a bright red nose!
