These things are sooo yummy! A lot of steps but we loved em!
Cake Mix
Cream Cheese Frosting
Chocolate Chips (may need two bags, or chocolate almond bark)
Bake the cake and let it cool completely. I used Pillsbury Chocolate
Fudge but any chocolate cake mix will work. Then add 1/2 container of cream cheese cake frosting and mix with hands (crumbling the cake mix in your hands.).You can use a scoop to make the balls or just use your hands. Then hollow them out making a hole in the middle with your finger.
Once this is done place them in the freezer while you are making the
cream filling. Let stay in freezer at least 30 minutes.
Also... Save some of the mix to cover the hole after filling... just
enough to make about 2 cake balls... Do not freeze this part. Just set
it aside.
Cream Filling
You will need:
2 tsp very hot water, not boiling
1/4 tsp salt
1 jar marshmallow creme
1/2 cup shortening
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
Dissolve salt into hot water and set aside to cool. Whip marshmallow
creme, shortening, sugar and vanilla until fluffy. Add water once cool
and whip well. I used my hand mixer because it was easier to control
the cream
Ok.. now to fill the cake balls. I have a fancy shmancy pastry bag set
that comes with a tip for filling BUT I actually liked using a ZipLoc
bag with the tip cut off better. You use whatever you like :)
Take the cake balls out of the freezer and fill!
Now smooth out a piece of the cake ball mix you saved and place over
the filling. Smooth onto the cake ball.
Now put these back in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
Once they are ready... melt your chocolate (chocolate chips or
chocolate almond bark) and dip as normal. (I used a spoon to roll it
around in the chocolate and a fork to get it out)
Put BACK in freezer or refrigerator for just a few minutes while you
are preparing the white chocolate.
melt some white chocolate chips and place in a ZipLoc bag... snip just
a very very tiny bit off the end. Then make little swirls on top of
the cake balls with the white melted chips.
enjoy.
