Start with your extra cake (or scraps). I used chocolate cake, but you can use any flavor. (Note: the cake works best when it's been chilled).
Break the cake up into a KitchenAid mixing bowl.
Add a sweet liquid (like melted chocolate, canned frosting, or leftover buttercream) and add it your broken up cake. I used cream cheese frosting because that's what I had leftover!
Mix the frosting with the cake in the KitchenAid.
Use a cookie scoop (or your hands) to make balls and then put them on a half sheet to be placed in your fridge to set.
Melt chocolate, cover the cake bites with the chocolate and put in the fridge to set. I added nuts to the chocolate for a textured look, but you can also leave the chocolate plain.
Decorate however you choose and enjoy!
these are everything i could ever want from a dessert... these balls take the cake!!!
