Prepare and bake cake according to package directions, using a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Cool completely on a wire rack.

Cake Pops are so easy and kids love them! Basic versatile recipe that can be just rolled into balls, dipped and drizzled. I have used for bake sales and kid friendly events.

The best dessert recipe in the Taste of Home catalogue in decades. A little timely though, but my grandchildren already love this timely classic :)
