Red Velvet Cake Balls

Are you making Valentine treats for someone special?  Well, put these on the Tippy Top of your list. OH! MY! GOSH!  These are amazing beyond belief.  I made these totally from scratch but you can easily make them with a cake made from a box and a tub of premade cream cheese frosting. They were so flippin delicious I would encourage you to try it from scratch too, if at all possible.  I made the cake and frosting the day before I formed the cake balls and did the dippin. I liked how this worked out time wise. Honestly, I don't think I would have enjoyed making them as much if I 'd jammed it all into one day.  The rolling and dipping is fairly time consuming, although pretty simple. This would be a great project to make with kids!  Can you say Hello teachers gifts!

This recipe is at my new site. Hope to see you there :) I've posted a lot of new things.

  4. They look delicious. Bite size makes them better, perhaps I can resist a big piece of cake.
