Skinny Cake Pops
Soft yellow cake pops bake up light and tender thanks to creamy Greek yogurt folded into the batter. Each pop gets a silky white chocolate shell that snaps gently before melting into sweet vanilla richness.

Ingredients
- 16 1/2 oz package yellow cake mix
- 6 oz plain fat-free Greek yogurt (Chobani)
- 1 cup water
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- baking spray
- 48 oz Baker's white chocolate (20 oz calculated in n.i*)
- sprinkles (optional)
- 48-50 lollipop sticks
- styrofoam block
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Lightly spray a the cake pop pan with baking spray.
- Combine all the cake ingredients in a large mixing bowl and beat until combined.
- Place the batter into a pastry bag or large ziplock bag with the tip cut off.
- Pipe the batter into the prepared cake pop pan and bake about 18 minutes (I rotated the pan after 10 minutes to be sure they baked evenly).
- Let it rest 5 minutes before opening the pan.
- Place cake balls on a wire rack and repeat with remaining batter.
- Using a scissor, cut the seam off the balls.
- Refrigerate the cake balls for about 45 minutes, this helps the chocolate stick to the cake.
- Melt some of the chocolate in the microwave according to package directions, careful not to burn the chocolate.
- Insert the tip of the stick into the melted chocolate, then into the cake ball (this helps hold the stick in place).
- In batches, melt remaining chocolate.
- Dip the cake pops into the chocolate, let the excess drip off then place stick on a styrofoam block about a minute, then add sprinkles on top if using.
