Ingredients

1 baked Amish Friendship Bread
1 package cream cheese, room temperature
1 package vanilla or chocolate almond bark or colored  candy melts
Lollipop sticks, cut in half
1/3 cup crushed cookies, optional
Decorative sprinkles, colored sugar, mini-chocolate chips or crushed nuts

Directions

1. Completely cool (4 hours or overnight) any Amish Friendship Bread.
2. Put cake in a large bowl and break it up with your hands into small pieces.

4. Cover baking sheet with aluminum foil.

6. When firm, melt chocolate in melting pot, double boiler or microwave bowl.
7. Dip each ball into the chocolate until covered, tap off excess chocolate, gently. Stick into a styrofoam to keep lollipops upright.

Kitchen Notes

Variations:

1) Upside down cake pop: Once ball dipped into chocolate, place on baking sheet with the stick up in the air. Decorate "upside down."

2) Cake ball:  "Quickest method" Don't stick lollipop sticks into cake. Once firm, use two forks or a toothpick to dip into melted chocolate and another toothpick to push ball off onto aluminum foil. Use extra chocolate to cover the top where toothpick was inserted. Decorate.
