Method-
Once you bake the cake, allow it to cool down completely.
-
Crumble the cake completely into a large mixing bowl. Now pour in two tblsp of melted butter and mix it well with a wooden laddle.
-
The mixture should be moist enough to roll into 1 1/2-inch balls and still hold a round shape. Add some more melted butter if the cake crumbs are dry and difficult to make balls.
-
After rolling the cake balls by hand, place them on a wax paper. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze them for 2 hours.
-
Break the dark chocolate into small chunks and melt it using the double boiling method. (Place the chocolate in a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water) Keep stirring using a dry spatula until the chocolate is completely melted.
-
Allow the melted chocolate to come to room temperature.
-
Now take the cake balls from the fridge and dip them one at a time in the melted chocolate until it is well coated on all sides. Remove the ball carefully using a fork and place them on the butter paper again. Do the same for all the balls and leave it untouched until the chocolate sets.
-
Melt white chocolate and spoon it into a piping bag. Draw lines or any pattern on the cake balls for decoration. Allow this to set as well.
-
Place them into an air tight container and store it on the counter top or in the fridge for a week and use.
Note:
-
If you have dry cake bought from store you can use it to make cake balls and enjoy it in a different form.
-
You can use a different flavor of cake like vanilla or red velvet for a difference in color.
-
Decorate the balls with sprinkles of your choice or nuts too.
