How to Make Cake Balls

Make a 9x13 inch cake and cool completely.  After it is cool put cake in a large bowl and completely crumble.


Add about 2 cups frosting that has been chilled.
Mix well together until it looks all one color: no frosting specs remain
Roll into balls and set on pan lined with waxed paper or Silpat.  Put in fridge for several hours or freezer until firm to touch.
Dip cold cake balls in melted candy melts or almond bark.  If you want sprinkles, sprinkle on immediately after coating before it sets up.  Store in refrigerator. Makes about 70-1 inch cake balls for a 9x13 inch cake.

The cake balls in the pictures are red velvet that I dyed green for St. Patrick's day.  The frosting is cream cheese.
