Red Velvet Cake Balls


I saw this recipe on my friend Kelly's blog and thought I'd give it a try - it is super easy and you can make it in any variety of flavor combinations that you'd like. I've seen yellow cake with chocolate icing or chocolate cake with chocolate icing...BUT, I've decided to use red velvet cake with cream cheese icing (my second choice was going to be carrot cake with cream cheese...I think that would be really good too!)
Here's what you need:

All you do is bake the cake according to the package directions with the eggs, oil, and water.

When the cake is still warm, crumble it up into a large bowl and mix in one tub of icing. Mix well.

IMPORTANT STEP!! Refrigerate the cake/icing mixture for ONE HOUR before you start making the balls.

I used The Pampered Chef Medium Scoop to create the balls (let me know if you need one, I know where you can get one or two!)

Melt Almond Bark (chocolate or vanilla depending on your cake) and dip cake balls in the melted chocolate bark. I used a toothpick, but you could use a fork or slotted spoon.

And ther you have it, one of the yummiest things you've ever tasted! Enjoy!
