2. Step
Sift the flour, cocoa, soda, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Mix well.
3. Step
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar and egg. Stir well to form a smooth mixture. Add the vanilla paste, yoghurt, milk and vinegar. Mix and finally add the colouring. Stir until the colouring is evenly incorporated.
4. Step
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in thirds. Do not mix all the dry ingredients at once as lumps may form. Mix until a smooth mixture is formed.
5. Step
Prepare a muffin tray and line it with baking paper. Fill the muffin tin up to 3/4 of the height of the muffin tin.
6. Step
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted has no uncooked batter on it.
7. Step
Leave the baked cupcakes in the baking tray for another 2 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
8. Step
Transfer the cooled cupcakes to a bowl, remove the baking sheets and crush them until you have crumbs.
9. Step
Gradually add the mascarpone cheese and powdered sugar, stirring and kneading constantly in between.
10. Step
The resulting batter should be sticky enough to form into balls. However, it must not stick to your hands. If it is too dry, crumbles and you cannot form the balls, add a teaspoon of mascarpone cheese. If it is too wet, you can add a tablespoon of coconut or powdered sugar.
11. Step
Form the mixture into balls with your hands, cover with clingfilm and place in the fridge for 15 minutes.
12. Step
In the meantime, melt the white chocolate over a low heat. Add the oil a tablespoon at a time whilst stirring constantly.
13. Step
Take the cooled balls out of the fridge.
14. Step
Dip the tip of a stick in the melted chocolate and insert it into the ball. Insert about 1 cm of the stick into the ball. Repeat with all the balls and allow the chocolate to set.
15. Step
Once the chocolate has set, cover the whole balls with chocolate. You can either just dip the ball into the jar of chocolate or hold it over the jar and pour the melted chocolate over the ball. Once the ball is completely covered, grasp the stick at the top, as close to the ball as possible, and tap it lightly on the rim of the jar to drain off the excess chocolate (you need to be gentle here, if you do this too quickly and too roughly, the ball may fall off the stick).
16. Step
Stack the Cake Pops upright in the jar, making sure they do not touch each other, and sprinkle them with shredded coconut.
17. Step
Refrigerate and serve!
18. Step
Cake Pops can also be kept in the freezer. Wrap the hardened Cake Pops in cling film - one at a time - and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Before eating, place the frozen Cake Pops on the counter and leave for 5-10 minutes to thaw.
