Most people have heard of the famous Cake Balls by now. They're the delicious balls of cake surrounded by chocolate from Bakerella. I made them a couple Christmases ago and now they're requested every single year.
What You Need:
- Box of cake mix (I used Red Velvet)
- Can of frosting that complements your cake (I used cream cheese)
- Chocolate bark (Used white chocolate/vanilla)
1. Bake the cake according to the directions on the box. Let it cool completely.
2. After the cake cools, crumble it into a bowl.
3. Mix the frosting with the crumbled cake.
4. Roll the mixture into balls. I did mine about an inch in diameter. You can make yours whatever size you want depending on preference.
5. Chill the balls in the fridge for a few hours. I recommend overnight.
6. Melt the chocolate bark in the microwave and dip the balls in it. I recommend doing small sections at a time to keep the chocolate more workable.
7. Decorate the tops in whatever fashion you want immediately and then eat after the chocolate has hardened.

I will never, ever make a cake ball ever again. So delicious but soooo much work!
ReplyDeleteThey're such a pain, but they always get requested for me to make. My MIL wants me to make them this year, but I can't find red velvet boxed mix for the life of me.
