These festive July 4th cakesicles are a fun and delicious treat perfect for celebrating Independence Day.

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan by greasing it.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  • Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack.
  • Once the cake has cooled, crumble it into a large bowl. Add the vanilla frosting and mix until fully combined.
  • Scoop out portions of the cake mixture and shape them into popsicle-like forms. Insert popsicle sticks into each cakesicle.
  • Place the cakesicles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 1 hour until firm.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  • Dip each frozen cakesicle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
  • Immediately sprinkle the red, white, and blue sprinkles onto the wet chocolate coating before it hardens.
  • Melt the red and blue candy melts separately in the microwave and drizzle them over the coated cakesicles for a festive touch.
  • Let the cakesicles sit until the chocolate sets completely, about 30 minutes at room temperature or 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the July 4th cakesicles chilled and enjoy your festive treat!
