Ingredients:
1 (18.25-ounce) boxed YOUR FAV cake mix plus ingredients called for on box
1 (16-ounce) can betty crockers frosting
Directions:
Bake the cake according to package instructions. While warm, crumble the cake into a bowl with a hand mixer to a fine texture.
Mix in frosting to make a paste, using 3/4 to a full can of frosting, according to taste. Chill the mixture for at least 2 hours.
Using a melon baller or your hands, form the mixture into 1 ½ -inch balls. Place the balls on wax paper; freeze at least 6 hours.
Working in small batches, remove the balls from the freezer and dip the balls into warm, melted cooking chocolate OR Almond Bark Coating or Confectionery Wafer Coating, using toothpicks or forks to manipulate the balls.
Remove the balls. Place the balls on wax paper to harden.
NOTE:
I use the plastic forks - I break the middle two and use the out two to dip :)...it's a good tip
also when moving them around wear gloves so u don't leave ur finger prints :)
Almond Bark / Cooking/ baking chocolate Coating: In a double boiler, melt one (20-ounce) package vanilla- or chocolate-flavored almond bark, stirring constantly. Or, in a tall, narrow container, microwave almond bark for 45 seconds on High (100 percent power). Continue to heat in 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until melted; be careful not to scorch.
When almond bark (or cooking/baking chocolate) is melted, stir in 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. If desired, stir in oil-based coloring drop by drop until you achieve the desired color.
Confectionery Wafer Coating: Melt 48 ounces confectionery wafers in double boiler or microwave oven per instructions for Almond Bark Coating. Omit oil. If desired, stir in oil-based coloring drop by drop until you achieve the desired color.
For decoration, fill a narrow-tip plastic squeeze bottle with a contrasting color of melted coating and paint stripes over the balls, or sprinkle on rainbow jimmies, colored sparkling sugar or finely chopped nuts. (If you are using oil-based candy color to tint coating made from white- chocolate disks, decorate with sprinkles quickly as the oil candy color causes the coating to set rapidly.
ENJOY :)
