Cake Balls

    Cake Balls are popping up everywhere and I finally got a good recipe from a friend that made them over the weekend with her 4 year old daughter. She said they were super easy, just a little time consuming.  She found the lollipop sticks and plastic bags to wrap each individually at Walmart!  The recipe can be experimented with other flavors! Guess what I am doing this week!!! Happy Monday! xoxo, Julie















    My friend Lori's Chocolate Cake Balls

    1 box Devil’s Food Cake Mix
    1 pack of almond bark
    1 can of chocolate icing

    Bake cake according to directions.  After cooled, throw cake in a bowl.  Mix cake with ¾ of the icing and then form into balls.  Put into refrigerator for a little while.  Melt half of almond bark in microwave according to directions.  Cover the balls by using a fork or spoon and place on wax paper.

    OR my friend Karron's Vanilla Cake Balls

    1 box Betty Crockers Super Moist Vanilla Cake Mix
    Plymouth Pantry Almond Bark Vanilla Flavored
    1 can Pillsbury's Creamy Cream Cheese Icing
    Almond Extract (put it in when the cake and icing are mixed)

    Bake cake according to directions.  After cooled, throw cake in a bowl.  Mix cake with ¾ of the icing and then form into balls.  Put into freezer for 30 minuets.  Melt half of almond bark in microwave according to directions.  Cover the balls by using a fork or spoon and place on sticks and on to styrafoam.

    UPDATE:  We made the vanilla ones and they are the yummiest, cutest, most fun things ever! A few tips-make sure to make the balls about gumball-sized, only stick the sticks in half-way through each ball and freeze for a good hour. We had a problem with the sticks falling through the balls when we were covering with melted almond bark-so I'm pretty sure those tips will help you. We ended up making those with stick problems in to upside down cake balls!
