Spice Cake Balls

Cake Balls are the bomb. My son's friend put these on his Christmas list this year. My daughter gave bags of chocolate and spice cake balls to her school teachers. This is one of those treats that is hard to leave alone. They are bite size and wonderfully delicious.

1 box spice cake:

bake according to package directions

1 recipe vanilla cream frosting:

3 to 4 cups powdered sugar

1/3 cup butter, softened

2 to 4 tablespoons half and half or whole milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

pinch of salt

3 cups white bark or white chocolate chips for dipping.

1. In medium bowl, combine sugar, butter, vanilla, salt, and cream until thick and smooth.
2. Add more cream until desired frosting consistency. 

3. In large bowl, crumble baked cake.
4. Add 2 cups of frosting to crumbled cake.
5. Stir to combine. Cake and frosting mixture should be sticky. If too dry, add more frosting.
6. Using melon baller, make small balls the size of a quarter.
7. Place balls on cookie sheet or in glass dish.
8. Freeze for approximately 2 hours or until well set.
9. Melt chocolate or bark in microwave safe bowl for 25 seconds at a time. Stir between cooking times. Be careful not to get liquid on chocolate or it will harden. Do NOT overcook or chocolate will burn.

10. Carefully dip each spice cake ball in white chocolate.
11. Let chocolate set before serving. May place in refrigerator to help set more quickly.
