Spring Strawberry Cake Truffles

 

Spring Strawberry Cake Truffles

• 1 Strawberry Cake (13×9 size), crumbled
• 1 cup cream cheese frosting
• 1 12 ounce bag white chocolate chips
• Sprinkles or sanding sugar for decorating

1. Place the cake crumbs in a large bowl with 1/2 cup of the frosting. Start mixing the frosting and crumbs together, adding more frosting one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve the consistency of a playdoh.

 

2. Use clean hands to roll the crumb mixture in your hands to form them into wedge like strawberry shapes, or just make classic round truffles. Insert a lollipop stick or popsicle stick and refrigerate the pops while you melt the chocolate in the microwave.

 

3. One the chocolate is a smooth consistency dip the chilled cake balls in it until totally covered. Then decorate with sanding sugar or sprinkles and place on a plate lined with wax paper. Place the plate in the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate is totally set.

Oh! I love this project. I had no idea you could dye salt with chalk. I’m sure it creates quite a mess, but I bet kids would adore it. You can find Anne’s full DIY instructions here.


Now I’m wondering what sorts of things I could do with dyed salt. This could be fun for a birthday party activity.

A few things!!!

Hello, Friends! Any fun plans for the weekend? I’m hoping to do some baking and spend some quality time with the family.  Crossing my fingers the weather is sunny and warm so that I’m tempted away from our cozy fireplace.
