* 1 box red velvet cake mix
* 3 eggs
* 1 cup half and half
* 1 tsp. vanilla extract
* ½ cup sour cream
* 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
* ½ cup Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting
Method:
Mix together cake mix, eggs, half and half, vanilla extract, and sour cream.
Batter will be thicker. Pour batter into a greased 9x13 baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 28-32 minutes, until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Crumble cake into small, even pieces, placing crumbs in a large bowl.
Add the following ingredients:
8 oz. cream cheese, softened ½ cup Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting
With the back of a spoon, mix together cake crumbles with ingredients until a thick "dough" consistency forms, making it easy to shape into a cake bite.
Shape cake bites, evenly sized and cool for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator, or 20 minutes in the freezer. Dip into white melting chocolate.
Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting
Ingredients:
* Makes approx. 3 cups of frosting
* 8 tbsp. (1 stick) butter, room temperature
* 3 ¾ cups powdered sugar, sifted
* 3-4 tbsp. milk or cream
* 2 tsp. vanilla extract
Method:
Place the butter in a large mixing bowl. Beat until light and fluffy, about 30 seconds. Stop the mixer before adding the sugar or you will have a large mess to clean up. Add the sugar, 3 tablespoons milk (cream) and vanilla extract. Beat frosting starting on slow increasing your speed until frosting is nice and creamy. Add up to 1 or more tablespoons of milk (cream) if frosting to too thick.
