Butterfinger Cups Push Pops

Small CB DisclosureButterfinger Cups Push Pops #thatnewcrush #shop #cbias

Did you catch the commercial for Butterfinger Cups during the big game last weekend? I’ve been on the hunt for them ever since. (And it took a few days to find them, although I did spot more than a few empty boxes… Guess they’re everyone’s favorite new candy bar!) When I finally got my hands on my own Butterfinger Cups, I knew it was time to have a little fun in the kitchen. And what better excuse than my new stash of Butterfinger Cups to finally try my hand at making cake push pops?Butterfinger Cups Push Pops #thatnewcrush #shop #cbias

Making the push pops is easy. (Really, easier than I thought it would be!) I started by using the push pop containers to cut the Butterfinger cups. SAMSUNG CSC

When you cut the cups you’ll get a nice stash of Butterfinger Cups crumbs. You might be tempted to eat a few of them. Go ahead. Just don’t eat them all. You’ll need them later! Butterfinger Cups Push Pops #thatnewcrush #shop #cbias

Keep cutting the cups until you have two cups for each push pop you’re going to make.

For the cake, I just used a box mix and baked it in a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Once the cake had cooled, I used the push pop to cut out circles, making three cake circles for each push pop.

Butterfinger Cups Push Pops #thatnewcrush #shop #cbias When it was time to assemble the push pops, I layered cake, chocolate mousse (recipe below), and a Butterfinger cup. Repeat, ending with chocolate mousse. Top with the crumbs left from cutting the Butterfinger Cups. (If you have any left, that is!) Tip for making push pops: You might be tempted to start with the push pop plunger pushed up and then stuff down as you go. Don’t do it! The mousse will totally smear and make a huge mess. Just start with the plunger in the bottom and layer. A plastic bag is great for piping in the mousse during assembly. After that, they’re ready to serve! If you’re planning to serve later, just store in the fridge.
