These sparkly, boozy champagne naughty cake pops are the perfect treat for your next birthday party, award ceremony, or even a bridal shower or wedding! The light chocolate cake pairs perfectly with the sweet champagne glaze and is all tied together with a perfectly crunchy and sparkly layer of sugar and sprinkles. Try different kinds of colored sugars and even try adding different flavor extracts into the glaze such as strawberry for a chocolate covered strawberry and champagne effect! Remember, the champagne turns these into adult cake pops, so be sure to keep away from children and those under 21!

Chocolate Champagne Naughty Cake Pops
The Ingredients:
Cake Pops:
- 2 1/4 C Flour
- 1/2 C Cocoa Powder
- 1 1/2 C White Sugar
- 3t Baking Powder
- 1t Salt
- 2/3 C Butter
- 6 Egg Whites
- 1t Vanilla Extract
- 2/3 C Champagne
- 1 ½ C Powdered Sugar
- 3-4T Milk
Chocolate Coating:
- 1 C Dark Chocolate
- 2T Coconut Oil
Champagne Glaze:
- 1 C Powdered Sugar
- ¼ C Champagne
- Food Coloring, optional
- Sugar or Sprinkles for decoration.
The Directions:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in Vanilla.
- Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together, and then blend into creamed mixture alternately with champagne.
- Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into batter, then fold in remaining egg whites. Pour into a pan and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- Let cake cool completely, then crumble into a large bowl with your hands.
- Mix the powdered sugar and milk to make a frosting, and add it to the cake crumbles. Mix thoroughly with your hands. Mixture should stick together, but still be slightly crumbly.
- Using a cookie scoop or rounded tablespoon, make rounded balls out of the mixture, place on a stick, and set aside.
- Once all cake pops are made, melt together your chocolate and coconut oil and mix until smooth.
- Dip the cake pops in, and let all excess drip off before setting aside. I recommend placing them cake pop up in a cup, or putting the stick side into styrofoam so they do not fall or touch each other.
- Once all cake pops are coated in chocolate, mix together the powdered sugar, champagne, and food coloring. Coat the cake pops, and let all excess drip off.
- Immediately, thickly coat the cake pops in colored sugar or sprinkles and set aside to dry.
- Enjoy!
