List of Ingredients
Cake Bites
1 devil's food cake mix
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup oil
1/4 cup butter
6 ounces cream cheese
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Milk, enough to make a good frosting
Dipping chocolate (Melt together 2 12oz packages chocolate chips white, milk or dark & 3T shortening) Recipe
Make cake according to directions on box and bake as directed. While baking mix together butter, cream cheese, vanilla, and milk to make a frosting. When cake is done dump immediately into a large bowl with the cream cheese frosting (or store bought frosting) and mix it all together while still hot (it will be a little mushy). Refrigerate overnight.
Roll into balls and dip in melted dipping chocolate. If balls are sticky I put them in freezer bags and flash freeze them until I'm ready to dip. They will freeze beautifully for months before they are dipped, just let them thaw for about 5 minutes before dipping to prevent cracking. Once cake bites are dipped do not refrigerate or freeze, just eat them!
*You can also use cream cheese frosting that you buy at the store.
**German chocolate cake mix mixed with german chocolate frosting and dipped in milk chocolate is also very tasty.
