Chocolate Halvah Cake Pops Recipe | The Nosher

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Prepare boxed cake mix per directions or with optional substitutions. Add crumbled halva into the cake mixture. Bake per directions.

Step 2

Meanwhile, place a piece of parchment paper on a sheet pan and make a space in the fridge or freezer to place once cake pops are rolled.

Step 3

Once cooled, the cake should be moist enough to roll into perfect cake pop consistency. Use a small ice cream or cookie scoop to help you measure them out, and mix in extra halva pieces to your taste. Wear food safe gloves if you can; this can get messy quickly. Roll into uniform and tight balls and make sure there are no cracks. See picture for reference.

Step 4

Quick tip squish the mixture together tightly then roll between palms for the perfect cake pop.

Step 5

Place in fridge to chill.

Step 6

While the cake balls chill, melt and temper the chocolate. Set your microwave on a medium setting (for my microwave that is 5). Break up half the chocolate bar into a pyrex or microwave safe bowl. Make sure there is no water in the bowl or any utensils you are using.

Step 7

Melt the chocolate at 30-second intervals until 90% melted. Stir to speed up the melting process. Chop the remaining half of the chocolate bar into small chunks. Add to melted chocolate. Let sit for 10 seconds and stir until combined.

Step 8

Take the cake balls out of the fridge, dip the popsicle sticks into chocolate, and insert them into cake pops. Repeat until finished.

Step 9

Once chocolate has set on sticks (not shiny anymore, matte finish) dip cake pop into chocolate. I recommend to constantly stir the chocolate so it stays a good temperature. If the chocolate becomes thick and hardened, place back into microwave, reheat gently and stir.

Step 10

Add in extra pieces of room temperature chocolate if you have. It is best to work in a warm kitchen so the chocolate doesn’t harden as quickly.

Step 11

Store pops in fridge until serving. You can freeze the pops wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, an airtight container, or a sealed plastic bag.
