Cake Balls

I am obsessed with anything cake, cupcake. And when I first saw these I was so excited to try them, they are so easy, and so delicious, and they make a fun treat for kids, they can be dressed up elegantly for weddings and parties, or decorated for holidays.


  1. 1 box cake mix ( any flavor)
  2. 8 (oz) cream cheese
  3. 2 cups powdered sugar
  4. 4 tbsp butter
  5. 1 tbsp milk

Bake the cake until done, cool in refrigerator, when it is completely cool,  crumble into large bowl with a fork until it is fine crumbs.
In a separate bowl whip the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and milk, until smooth. Pour into cake mix, and mix with spoon until you are able to roll dough into a ball on your hand.
When the mix is done, refrigerate until firm

Cake Pops
  1. Lollipop sticks (found at Michael's, JoAnn's, or other craft stores
  2. 12 ounces chocolate chips
  3. 12 ounces white chocolate bark 
  4. Edible wax (optional)
  5. Colored sugars, candies, and other decorative sprinkles
Prepare two large baking sheets by covering with wax paper or parchment. Take a little bit of the cake mixture and roll it into a ball. If you want to use the lollipop sticks, stick one into the end of each ball, pointing upward, as you put the ball back down on the sheet. [Note: I cut the long lollipop sticks in half; they seemed a little long for the size of the balls.]
Repeat until you've used up all the mixture. As each sheet fills up, put it in the freezer so that the balls harden.

Dip hardened cake balls, into melted chocolate, candy chips etc, and decorate however you like.
