Instructions
- Make Your Red Velvet Cake: Bake a red velvet cake following your preferred recipe or box mix. Allow it to cool completely, then crumble it into a large bowl.
- Combine with Frosting: Add cream cheese frosting to the crumbled cake. Mix until well combined.
- Shape the Mixture into Balls: Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the Truffles: Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the Chocolate: Melt dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
- Coat the Truffles: Dip each truffle in melted chocolate and place back on the baking sheet.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle toppings immediately after coating.
- Allow to Set: Let the truffles sit at room temperature or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to set.
Notes
For variety, try incorporating walnuts, using Greek yogurt for a lower-calorie option, or swapping butter for coconut oil in the chocolate coating.
