Ingredients
  • 1 box of cake mix, your preferance
  • 1 tub of frosting,again, your preferance
  • 1 pkg. almond bark, chocolate or vanilla

Directions
  1. Make whatever flavor box cake according to directions, in a 9X13 pan. Let cool .
  2. Tear up cake and put in a BIG bowl. Now you add a tub of store bought frosting, choose flavour accordingly. Of course, chocolate with chocolate, white with white, cream cheese with yellow, etc. Let your imagination and your taste be your guide!
  3. Squish your frosting into your torn up cake til it's like a
  4. play-doh consistency, & cake & frosting are evenly mixed.
  5. Now, either make balls with your hands, or whatever size scoop you want & let them dry for a bit on wax paper, some folks leave overnight, I just do a few hrs.
  6. Melt almond bark in med. sized bowl in the microwave .
  7. Dip cakeballs into melted bark & set on wax paper to dry.
  8. Some times I take a little frosting, thin it out a bit, & put in a sandwich bag, cut a corner off, & squeeze a pretty squiggly pattern on each cake ball.
  9. DO NOT refrigerate or the almond bark will melt & ruin your end result.
  10. Store loosely covered, they will keep a few days.

I MADE THESE RECENTLY. I USED WHITE CAKE MIX AND CHERRY FROSTING THEN DIPPED IN CHOCOLATE. THESE REALLY DON'T SET UP WELL IN THE WARM WEATHER. I THINK I WILL WAIT TIL THE COOL WEATHER BEFORE ATTEMPTING AGAIN!! MAYBE FOR HALLOWEEN WILL USE ORANGE CAKE, VANILLA OR BUTTERCREAM OR CREAM CHEESE FROSTING, THEN COAT IN CHOCOLATE. THANKS FOR REMINDING ME ABOUT THIS RECIPE. IT WAS A HUGE HIT WITH MY KIDS!


You're quite welcome. My hubby loves them ! My 5 yr old grandson hasn't tasted them yet but I am sure they won't last long once he does !


Wow.... I really love the ways these look....
Awesome....


Oooh! I used to make these for my pastry class in high school... at home these are way better!


If you put in frig the almond bark melts?


I can do these in our "team colors" for football parties! ;)


In germany there is a version they use various cakes crumbled soaked in rum add ground nuts and gently add whipped cream and then coat them in chocolate. I eat them but have never made them. Your version sounds much easier. Thanks.
