I give this 5 stars because of the taste and the dessert altogether.These cake balls came out perfectly, until the chocolate. I found it un-neccasary to let the cake cool completely. I waited only about 5 mins. until I mixed the icing. I made a red velvet cake and had to use a whole container of whipped cream cheese icing. I also didnt need to chill the mixture before forming it into balls. I didnt have a melon baller, but a tablespoon worked just as well. I made enough to fill one cookie sheet and put it in the fridge while the I formed the other ones. Then it was time for the chocolate. On other reviews I read that if you use chocolate chips, you have to add shortening. I didnt have shortening, so I used margarine. It seized up, so I used milk. That was a mess, so I microwaved it. It came out more like a glaze, which, I want too disappointed. I dipped them with little problems, other than not having enough glaze and put them back in the fridge. I was happy with the overall taste and didnt really care about the look. These were great, and I will be making another batch soon.
