Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Microwave-safe bowl
- Parchment Paper
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 red velvet cake 9x13-inch, baked and cooled (homemade or box mix)
- 1 cup cream cheese frosting store-bought or homemade
- 12 oz white chocolate chips or candy coating
- red or white sprinkles for garnish
Instructions
- Crumble the cooled red velvet cake into a large bowl until fine and even.
- Add cream cheese frosting gradually, mixing until a dough-like consistency forms.
- Roll tablespoon-sized portions into smooth balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour or freeze for 20 minutes until firm.
- Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate using a fork or skewer. Let excess drip off.
- Place truffles back on parchment paper and decorate immediately with sprinkles.
- Refrigerate until the coating sets, about 15 minutes.
Notes
Use just enough frosting to hold the cake crumbs together — too much makes it sticky. For best results, decorate truffles while the chocolate is still wet. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for 2 months.
