Description

Make these simple, no-bake Red Velvet Cake Balls for a delicious, festive treat. They combine rich red velvet cake with creamy frosting, coated in smooth white chocolate. This recipe is quick and perfect for parties.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) Red Velvet Cake Mix (prepared according to package directions, baked, and cooled)
  • 1 container (16 oz) Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 12 oz White Chocolate Melting Wafers or Chips
  • Optional: Red sprinkles for decoration


Instructions

  1. Crumble the cooled red velvet cake completely into small crumbs in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add the entire container of cream cheese frosting to the cake crumbs.
  3. Mix the cake and frosting together until fully combined and a dough forms.
  4. Roll the mixture into small, uniform balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Chill the cake balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  6. Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions (usually in a microwave-safe bowl in short intervals, stirring between each).
  7. Dip each chilled cake ball into the melted white chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  8. Place the coated balls back onto the parchment-lined sheet.
  9. Immediately add sprinkles, if desired, before the chocolate sets.
  10. Let the chocolate harden completely at room temperature or briefly in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • You can use leftover baked cake for this recipe.
  • Ensure the cake is completely cool before mixing with frosting.
  • If the mixture is too soft to roll, chill it longer.
  • Store finished cake balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
