Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking pan and prepare the cake mix according to package instructions using eggs and vegetable oil. Pour into the pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool the baked cake in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl.
Mix in frosting until fully combined; the mixture should hold together when pressed.
Roll the mixture into uniform balls (about 1 inch) and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Melt chocolate melts according to package instructions and dip each ball halfway using a lollipop stick. Stand them upright in styrofoam or an egg carton until set.
