Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) Red Velvet Cake Mix
- 2 large Eggs
- ½ cup Vegetable Oil
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Cream Cheese Frosting
- 12 oz Chocolate Coating (melting chocolate or candy melts)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water until smooth. Pour into a greased baking pan and bake for about 30 minutes, or as directed on the package.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, crumble the cake into fine pieces using your hands.
- In a separate bowl, gradually combine the crumbled cake with cream cheese frosting until a dough-like consistency forms.
- Roll small portions of the mixture into balls about one inch in diameter and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the cake balls in the refrigerator for at least one hour to firm up.
- Melt the chocolate coating as per package instructions. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate until fully coated and return them to parchment paper to set.
