Ingredients
- 1 box cake mix flavor of your choice
- eggs, oil and water as called for on cake mix box
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons canned frosting flavor of your choice
- 1 pound Candy Melts I recommend Ghirardelli Melting Wafers
- 1/2 cup Sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare cake mix with the amount of oil, water and eggs directed on the box. Bake in a 9”x13” pan according to package directions.
- Let cake cool completely, then break apart and crumble until fine crumbs form.
- Stir in the frosting until a dough forms. If the dough seems dry, you can add additional frosting, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Roll the cake mixture into tablespoon sized balls. Place the balls on a parchment lined baking sheet and chill for at least one hour.
- Melt the candy melts in a bowl in the microwave, heating in 30 second increments, and stir until completely smooth.
- Place each cake ball on a fork and use a spoon to pour the candy melts over the cake ball. Tap against the side of the bowl to remove excess candy melts.
- Place each ball on a parchment lined sheet pan. Top with sprinkles.
- Repeat with remaining cake balls and candy melts. Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. Can be made up to 3 days in advance.
