My friend Amy posted a treat on her blog with a link to all recipes and the recipe. I was intrigued and followed the link and as I read it took me back about 2 years when I had a yummy treat at a library party in town and took one home to my friend Linda to try to figure out how to make this treat. I'm pretty sure Amy's cakes balls is what I had. Even if it isn't, I am content with this new yumminess to believe they are the same. I planned to make this to distrubute to Tyler's class on his birthday. On all recipes, what I love is all the comments/reviews that people offer tips on how to make it better. I printed off about 25 diff. comments and studied it, underlined key points (michael thought I was crazy here) so I could make it perfectly. I'm not the world's greatest in the kitchen, so I really wanted this to work out. The reviews said it was time consuming, so I spread it out over a few days. You basically bake a cake (box mix) and right out of the oven, dump it into a bowl and mix it with frosting. Any cake, any frosting, the possibilities are endless. A review stated and I agree, this should be called a Cake Truffle. Divine.
Begin with this: cake mix, frosting, chocolate bark....I put sprinkles in, too
I dyed the cake blue and the frosting green

You made it look so easy! I love step-by-steps with photos!
i just made some more of these tonight! I totally studied all the reviews before I made them the first time as well...very helpful. Hope they are a hit!
Kristen,
So what do you think of the Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse books? I just finished all three for one of the books clubs here and I'm interested to know what other people think about them and the last book.
Hi Kristen, I tagged you. See my blog for instructions! :)
These were so good. I love your step-by-step photos!
oh my goodness! i just want to pull one of those right of the platter and eat one! they look so good!!
Yum! You actually make me want to try to make them, which is a big deal for me cuz I usually want to spend as little time in the kitchen as possible! :)
I just made something kind of like that. Only it was made with oreos and cream cheese. It was fabulous! The actual recipe is on my cooking blog.
I can't wait to try it with cake mix!
