Spooky season is officially here – and we're celebrating with these scary-good, collagen-infused Cake Pops. Ideal as a dessert or Halloween party favor, these bite-sized Cake Pops will keep you coming back for more. Each Cake Pop may be disguised as white chocolate mummies, but its center boasts a sweet, ooey-gooey filling.
To get started, bake the chocolate cake base, roll the cooled layer into spheres, and dip them into white chocolate before decorating. It really is that simple! The chocolate spheres contain Vital Proteins® Chocolate Collagen Peptides ($27; shop now) for an easy way to boost your daily collagen intake with every bite. Plus, this Halloween recipe skips the dairy or gluten, making it a must-have treat for all!
