St. Patty's Lucky Day Cake Bites
Creamy vanilla center, coated in festive green-colored white chocolate, and topped with gold glitter.
Ingredients
- I - 15 oz box white or vanilla cake mix
- 1 16 oz container of vanilla buttercream frosting
- 1 16 package of white melting or candy coating chocolate
- 1 tbsp coconut oil unmelted
- Gold Glitter Sprinkles
- Green food coloring
Instructions
- Bake the cake according to the directions on the box and allow to cool
- Gently break the cake into small pieces and add to a large mixing bowl
- Gradually add 3/4 of frosting to the bowl and gently fold it into the cake (but not mushy). Make sure there aren't any clumps of frosting. I like to use my hands.
- Using a large cookie scoop to remove the cake mix, roll it into 2-3-inch balls one at a time.
- Place in freezer for 30 minutes
- Add the melting chocolate and 1 tbsp coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Cook at 1-minute intervals until it's smooth and creamy, stirring in between.
- Add green food coloring to your chocolate and stir until you get your desired color. Depending on what kind you use, it may take more less. The natural food coloring will be a lighter shade of green.
- Remove the bites from the freezer and drop them one at a time into the chocolate. Using a slotted spoon, remove them from the bowl, allow excess chocolate to fall off, and place them on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. If they aren't fully coated, use a spoon to pour chocolate over the whole cake bite.
- Sprinkle gold glitter over the top immediately after removing it from the chocolate.
- Place them back on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet and freeze for 15-30 minutes.
