    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Place cake mix, oil, water, and egg whites in large bowl. Beat on low speed until combined. Beat at high speed 1 to 2 minutes or until smooth. Divide batter evenly between prepared baking pan.

    5. Remove cake pops from freezer. Dip lollipop sticks into melted chocolate and stick into center of each cake pop. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
