3 Bee-licious Treats You Can Make at Home

Sure, you could bake a regular old cake this weekend, or you could craft a sweet treat that's equal parts cute and delicious. Keep reading to learn how to make honeycomb cookie pops, a lemon-poppyseed beehive cake and chocolate-honey cupcakes that look and taste bakery fresh.

Feeling crafty? Whip up these adorable (and easy!) honeybee cookie pops for a fun weekend activity or to serve at your next party. For this recipe you'll need:

2 bags (24 oz.) yellow candy melts
6 thin chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos)
12 candy eyeballs
2 oz. melted chocolate
12 white candy wafers
6 chocolate chips
12” square new unused bubble wrap
lollipop sticks

Melt one bag of yellow candy melts in the microwave in 30-second increments in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring each time until smooth. Place a piece of bubble wrap that's been washed and dried on a cookie sheet and spread melted yellow candy out in a 1/4-inch thick layer. Let cool at room temperature, or refrigerate 15 minutes.

When the candy is hardened, flip it over so that the plastic bubble wrap side is up, then slowly and gently peel off the bubble wrap. Break into random, organically shaped 4-inch pieces. Place pieces on a work surface lined with parchment paper and set aside.
