Method

step 1

Break the Madeira cake and cookies into the bowl of a food processor, pour in the melted milk chocolate and whizz to combine.
step 2

Tip the mixture into a bowl, then use your hands to roll into about 10 walnut-sized balls. Chill for 2 hrs until really firm.
step 3

Push a skewer into each ball, then carefully spoon the white chocolate over the cake balls to completely cover. Stand the cake pops in the pumpkin, then press a chocolate bean onto the surface while wet. Chill again until the chocolate has set. Before serving, using the icing pens, add a pupil to each chocolate bean and wiggly red veins to the eyeballs.
