If, for some reason, you don't make it to the fireworks this year, these patriotic cake pops have enough flare to make up for it. While they may seem like a difficult dessert to make, they're actually a great place to start for amateur bakers.
To make the dish, you'll need some common pantry staples like flour, baking soda and butter. You'll also need cake pop sticks, white morsels and decorative sprinkles.
After combining your ingredients, place one tablespoon of batter in each muffin cup and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, then allow them to cool slightly in the pan. After that, insert the cake pop sticks and let the dessert cool completely on wire racks. Once the cake pops are dipped in the melted morsels, put them in the refrigerator until they set.
