Scary Eyeball Cake Pops

Method

Make it together.

1. Preheat oven to 180u00b0C/160u00b0C Fan/350u00b0F/Gas Mark 4. Grease and line an 8-inch cake tin. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl over simmering water, and leave to cool.
2. Cream the butter and sugar together slowly until combined, then start to beat the mixture on fast until pale and fluffy.
3. Add the beaten egg a little at a time on slow until each bit is incorporated, then pour all the cooled chocolate and vanilla extract into your mix, beating all the time.
4. Fold in the plain flour, then pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 30-40 minutes. Test the cake with a knife; this should come out with a slight mark of the cake mixture as you want a slightly gooey consistency.
5. Once cooled, crumble the cake into a fine crumb consistency and shape into balls ready to decorate.
6. Melt the white chocolate and oil in a bowl, then dip each fork into the mixture and stick into the cake pop. Leave to chill for 20 minutes.
7. Dip each ball into the white chocolate and leave to dry, then double dip again to achieve a smooth coating.
8. Cut out circles of green, red and yellow ready-to-roll icing and stick onto the cake pop using the Designer Icing.
9. Use the black icing to make a tiny ball for the pupil. Using Dr Oetker Red Food Gel Colour and a dash of water, pipe spindly lines coming out from the centre and over the cake pop to give a blood shot effect.
