Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
- Gradually add buttermilk to the mixture, mixing until smooth.
- Gently fold in diced fresh peaches using a spatula.
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, combine diced peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside for about 10 minutes.
- Once the cake is completely cool, crumble it into a large mixing bowl using clean hands until it resembles fine crumbs.
- Stir the prepared peach filling into the crumbled cake until evenly combined.
- Using your hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate the cake balls for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate or candy melts in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth. Stir in vegetable oil if desired.
- Remove the cake balls from the fridge. Dip the end of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate, then insert it into the center of each cake ball.
- Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, fully covering it.
- After dipping, roll the cake pops in crushed graham crackers. Place them upright in a styrofoam block or a cake pop stand to set.
- If desired, sprinkle with colorful sprinkles while the coating is still wet. Let the chocolate coating harden completely before serving.
