Red Velvet Cake Balls

I've been meaning to try making cake balls/cake pops for a long time now, but don't seem to have any cake leftovers. Recently i baked some red/pink velvet for my office's pot luck, and managed to have some cake leftovers, and decided to freeze them purposely for this project. :)

Red Velvet Cake Balls inspired by Bakerella
Preparation time: 30 minutes (minus the chilling time)
Baking time : None :)
Yields: almost 100 small balls (I used a 1/2 tsp measuring spoon to measure the cake balls)

All you need is a recipe of red velvet cake, a recipe of cream cheese frosting and chocolates for cover. Easy Peasy recipe. Lets start!

First, crush the cake into fine crumbles. If you have a mixer, just blitz it for a few minutes. I just used my hands (which are covered with plastic gloves. IMPORTANT).

Next, add the chilled cream cheese frosting into the cake crumbles, and mix well.

Then, roll the cake mixture into balls, size is according to your liking.

Next, chill the cake balls for at least 2 hours.

For the outer cover, melt dark/milk chocolate bars using double boiler method. Dip the balls into the melted chocolates, and decorate with tiny hearts or sprinkles. Chill again at least for 2 hours.

Taddaa!!. Ready for consuming :)

Taste: I used milk choc to cover the cake balls, so it turn up to be a bit too sweet for me. Next time, I'll use dark choc. Otherwise, it's goooood :)
