Cake Pops (process described here ^[8])

They can be dipped in chocolate, white or peanut butter candy coating for variations.
These were made with chocolate cake and cream cheese frosting.

Make the ears

Draw an elongated tear drop shape on the back of a plastic spoon with a Sharpie.
Turn the spoon over.
Trace the shape with a candy writer or either use a squeeze bottle filled with melted candy coating.
Fill the inside of the ear shape with candy coating.
Place in the freezer for a few minutes to set.
Remove and pop the ears off the spoon and store in a safe place until ready to use. These can even be made the night before.

Now for the noses

Cut mini size m&m’s in half or
Use a candy writer to draw your nose on wax paper and allow to dry until ready to use. These can also be made the night before.

Assemble:

Use squeeze bottle or candy writer to “glue” the pieces on the pop.
Place a drop of melted candy coating on the back of pre-made nose and place on pop.
Draw the eyes and mouth using the edible ink pen.
Use glue method to attach the ears and candies for the collars. Hold each for a few seconds until set.
Allow the Puppy Pops to dry and serve. Be careful with them, though. Their ears will be fragile.
