Ingredients

  • 1 box Yellow cake mix (or flavor of your choice), prepared per box instructions
  • Eggs, water, and oil, as called for on the cake mix box
  • 1 cup canned vanilla frosting (or flavor of your choice), more if needed
  • ½ (10 oz bag) dark chocolate melting wafers
  • ½ (10 oz bag) white chocolate melting wafers
  • ¼ cup Sprinkles

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven per the cake mix instructions. Prepare the cake mix with the amount of water, oil, and eggs per the box directions. 
  2. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish and bake as directed on the cake mix instructions. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
  3. Break apart the cake with fingers or forks until fine crumbs form.
  4. Add the frosting and stir until combined and the mixture is moist and soft but not sticky.
  5. Use a tablespoon cookie scoop to make balls, then place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least one hour.
  6. Melt the candy melts in a bowl in the microwave, heating for 30-second increments, then stirring until completely smooth.
  7. Place each cake truffle on a fork and use a spoon to pour the melted chocolate over the cake truffle. Tap gently against the side of the bowl to remove excess melted chocolate. 
  8. Place them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet, then add sprinkles to the top of each truffle immediately because the chocolate cools and hardens quickly.
  9. Store sealed in the refrigerator until needed. The cake truffles will last in the fridge for 5-7 days. Enjoy!
