Description

Rich and creamy Red Velvet Truffles, coated in chocolate and adorned with festive sprinkles, perfect for sharing or indulging in a moment of bliss.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Red velvet cake mix (along with the box ingredients: water, oil, eggs)
  • 10 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 12 oz almond bark or white chocolate candy melts
  • Festive sprinkles (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the red velvet cake according to the package instructions, then pour the batter into a greased 9×13 pan and bake it as directed. Allow to cool completely.
  2. Crumble the cooled cake into tiny pieces in a large mixing bowl. Add softened cream cheese and mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Roll about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 30 minutes.
  4. Melt almond bark or white chocolate, then dip each truffle into the chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Return to the parchment-lined sheet and garnish with sprinkles.

Notes

Chill the dough if too sticky; coat truffles completely for a crunchy outer layer.
