Ingredients:

  • 1 (18 oz) box cake mix, any flavor
  • 3 eggs ( varies , needed to make your cake. check the back of the cake mix box)
  • 1 1/3 cups water ( varies , needed to make your cake. check the back of the cake mix box)
  • 3 tbsp butter (varies, needed to make your cake. check the back of the cake mix box) or 3 tbsp margarine ( varies , needed
  • 1 (12 oz) can frosting, whipped (my friend uses cream cheese, i used butter cream. feel free to try your favorite kind!!)
  • 4 (8 oz) containers dipping chocolate , i'm not

Directions:

  1. Bake the cake as directed. Let the cake cool for 5-10 minutes. While still warm, break the cake into pieces in a large mixing bowl. Add the can of frosting and stir until mixed. The cake pieces will break up into much smaller pieces. (The mixture will be a bit of a mess and very gooey!).
  2. Roll the cake/frosting mixture into little balls (1 in diameter). Place them equally spaced on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze for about an hour.
  3. Melt your dipping chocolate in the microwave (or if you prefer to use a double boiler, feel free). Dip 1-2 cake balls in the chocolate and place back on the baking sheet. Immediately decorate with toppings. The cold cake/frosting mixture will harden the chocolate rather quickly so you can really only do 1-2 at a time.
  4. You may either keep in a sealed container or back in the freezer! This recipe should make anywhere from 20-30 balls.
  5. Feel free to change up flavors of frosting, cake mix, or toppings for all different sorts of little desserts!
