Ingredients
The following ingredients have 288 Servings
- 1 box strawberry cake mix (or use vanilla + several drops of pink or red food coloring)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 c. water
- 1/3 c. vegetable oil
- 1 c. prepared buttercream frosting
- 1/2 c. mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 - 12 oz. bag green candy melts (I used Wilton, purchased from Michaels)
Instruction
- Prepare and bake the cake according to package instructions. (For me, the ingredients included cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil.)
- Allow cake to cool completely, then break apart into crumbs in a large bowl.
- Add frosting, several tablespoons at a time, to cake crumbs.
- Mix well, and continue adding frosting until it reaches a consistency that it can easily be rolled into balls.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them an inch apart on the baking sheet.
- Place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
- In a small pot over low heat, melt the candy melts.
- Using toothpicks, cake ball sticks, or a dipper, dunk the cake balls, one at a time, into the chocolate, thoroughly coating all edges, and allowing excess chocolate to drip off the cake balls.
- Carefully set them back onto the baking sheet.
- Allow chocolate to set - about 20-30 minutes.
- Store in refrigerator. Enjoy!
