Cake Balls
Ok,this is the only review you need to read.I have the tips to solve all the problems. Make your cake in 2 round cake pans, take them out of pans,put on wax paper for 30 mins.Crumble COMPLETELY in bowl & add a dollop of frosting at a time.Mix well after each dollop until you can roll a ball around in your hand like making meatballs.Don't be a ninny and add the whole container, you'll be sorry you did.If frosting is added a bit at a time, you will have the chance to stop at a good rolling consistency that will stick together and you wont need all that 'put in the fridge or freezer before you coat them with chocolate' nonsense.Use regular choc morsels,melt them in the microwave under watchful eye at about 50% power,checking & stirring every 10-15 secs or so.Solve the toothpick or fork dilemma by simply putting them in a round foil cake pan 1 in. apart & coaxing the chocolate over the top and down the sides with a spoon. Stick in the freezer for 30 mins to set and you have a disgustingly orgasmic dessert that will make others draw back a nub if they try and touch one while in your hands. My FAV-Dark Chocolate Fudge cake w/milk chocolate frosting and half/half milk chocolate morsels & Andes mint chocolate pieces for the coating. I also pushed a maraschino cherry coated in white chocolate glaze into the middle of the balls, & stuck a sliver of Dove dark chocolate into the top before coating. I am sitting here now with chocolate all over my lips with a nasty Cheshire cat grin!! ;)
