Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a cake pan with non-stick spray.

- Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely, then crumble it into fine pieces in a bowl.
- Add the cream cheese frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until well combined.
- Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Insert a lollipop stick into each ball and freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the white chocolate with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
