Calories: 96kcal
Ingredients
- 1 red velvet cake mix
- 6 ounces cream cheese softened (use less for more cake-like truffles)
- 1 1/2 cup white chocolate melted
- 3 ounces red decorator's sugar
Instructions
- Bake the cake according to the package and let cool. Crumble the red velvet cake into a fine crumb. Fold in the cream cheese. Mix well.
- Roll 1″ balls of the red velvet mixture in the palms of your hands, until all mixture has been used. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. It’ll make around 35-40 balls. Set in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
- Melt the white chocolate. Remove the balls from the fridge. Using a fork, dip each truffle in the melted chocolate and place on parchment paper. Sprinkle with red decorating sugar. Put the truffles back in the fridge until the chocolate is set.
Notes
- The more cream cheese you use, the more moist and compact the cake will be. Adjust according to your own preferences.
- You can coat these with milk or dark chocolate too, if you prefer.
