Red Velvet Cake Balls




This is another easy dessert that is very versatile. You can change all the ingredients to combine your favorite flavors. My sister and I put this combination together.

Red Velvet Cake Balls

Ingredients:

1 box moist red velvet cake mix
1 container Betty Crocker rainbow chip frosting
1 cup white chocolate
assorted sprinkles

Directions:

1. Bake cake according to box directions.
2. Once baking is complete crumble warm cake in a large bowl. Add container of frosting and mix completely.
3. Form cake into quarter-sized balls. Freeze balls for about 1 hour, or until firm.
4. Melt white chocolate in microwave for about 1 minute or until completely melted.
5. Cover frozen balls with white chocolate. Top with sprinkles before chocolate begins to harden. You will need to do this pretty quickly since the balls are frozen the chocolate hardens very fast. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Tip: We found the easiest way to coat the cake balls is to poke the bottom of the ball with a toothpick, then dip top into the white chocolate. Use a spoon to get the cake ball off the toothpick and place on a cookie sheet with wax paper.
