White Chocolate Coating:
- Add white chocolate wafers to a microwave-safe bowl and melt for 30 seconds. Stir well and microwave for another 20 or 30 seconds, stir well with a spatula and if there is still chocolate that did not melt, microwave for another 10-15 seconds and stir well.
- Using a fork, dip each cake ball into the melted white chocolate and place bake on the baking sheet, top with sprinkles immediately.
- Place cake balls in the fridge for at least 20 – 30 minutes or until the white chocolate coating hardens.
