Instructions
In a small bowl, combine cream cheese and powdered sugar; stir with a whisk.
With clean hands, break up the angel food cake into large pieces (about 6 cups total).
Place in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form; transfer crumbs to a large bowl.
Add the cream cheese mixture and blend until a dough forms. Shape into 1-inch balls and insert lollipop sticks.
Transfer to a large plate and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Place the dark chocolate and white chocolate chips into separate microwave-safe bowls.
Heat one bowl at a time for 30 seconds.
Remove and stir until chips are melted and smooth (you may need to microwave for another 20 seconds). Immediately remove pops from the refrigerator and dip into either chocolate bowl; sprinkle with desired toppings.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port
Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port are great choices for Cake. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry
Very aromatic with notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and a touch of oak followed by sweet raisins and a touch of yeast. Clean lasting finish. Good now but will reward those allow it to age"". A favorite pre-prandial beverage. Consider it with nuts before dinner as an aperitif, or after dinner with dessert, especially chocolates and fruit-based desserts. Also wonderful on cold afternoons, served with biscotti to dip in ""Italian-style"". "
