Cake Balls (no, this has nothing to do with kinky sex)
So in my dessert hunting, I came upon this phenomenon known as "cake balls."
Link is here.
For the link-lazy, cake balls are made as follows: make a cake mix cake. When it comes out of the oven, crumble it into a bowl until it's just crumbs, then mix in a container of frosting. Refrigerate until somewhat firm. Roll into balls, then dip into melted chocolate.
I know, I know. I thought the same thing.
Tomorrow is my birthday, so I decided to make cake balls, so I gathered the ingredients and made them tonight. It was too late to dip in chocolate by the time I finished, so I rolled a dozen in powdered sugar and left the rest in the freezer to stay hard for tomorrow. (They don't have to be frozen, but they dip better that way.)
Let me say... yummy. Don't get me wrong, it's a diabetic coma in an aesthetically-pleasing ball shape. But oh, OHHHH, it's delicious. A little gooey-ish on the inside; think truffle rather than damp cake and it will help. I am looking forward to the chocolate-dipped ones tomorrow.
Edited to add: since I typed this, He-yet ate six more, then threw the bag at me and said "Get these things away from me!!" So they seem to be addictive.
