Cake Balls

1 box of cake mix, any flavor

1 can of frosting (any flavor you think would go with the cake mix flavor  two big spoonfuls)

Almond bark (or dipping chocolate)

Instructions

Bake cake following instructions in 13 x 9 pan.  Let cool completely.

Crumble until it resembles fine crumbs in a large bowl.

Using your hands, add in frosting a little bit at a time until cake is moist and can hold a ball shape, yet still slightly crumbly.  Incorporate the frosting into the cake crumbs.

Use a small ice cream scoop to scoop out balls of cake mixture.  Roll each ball into a tight ball and place on a cookie sheet.  Repeat until all the cake mixture has been rolled into balls.

Place the cake balls into the fridge for a couple of hours OR into the freezer for a little while. You want them to be nice and firm. Not frozen solid, but not mushy.

Just before you pull them, melt the almond bark for 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each 30-second increment in a Microwave safe container.   Make sure you have enough chocolate to completely submerge the cake ball.  (tall, deep bowls are better then wide, shallow bowls.)

Remove cake balls from freezer.

Dip cake balls carefully into the chocolate until covered.

Tap spoon on the side of the bowl gently to remove excess chocolate.

Place into the freezer to speed up setting time.

Cover with a clear treat bag & ribbon for gift giving, if desired.

Store in a single layer, in an airtight container.
