Recipe - No Bake Cake Butter Truffles

If you’ve got a party to make treats for, it's so easy to whip up a batch of these little truffles of cake covered in chocolate. Decorate them accordingly with little shamrock sprinkles or feel free to customize these depending on whatever holiday it is!

Ingredients:

For the truffles:

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup white cake mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
3-4 tablespoons milk
5-6 drops, green food coloring
2 tablespoons holiday sprinkles

For the coating:

16 ounces white chocolate coating
Holiday sprinkles
Fork (for dipping)

Directions:

# For the truffles, beat together butter and sugar using an electric mixer until combined.

# Add cake mix, flour, salt, peppermint extract and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.

# Add 3–4 tablespoons of milk if needed to make a dough consistency. Mix in sprinkles by hand.

# Roll dough into one-inch balls and place on parchment or wax paper on a cookie sheet.

# Chill balls in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up.

# For the coating, while dough balls are chilling, melt chocolate coating in the microwave in 30 second intervals until melted.

# Stir between intervals. Using a fork, dip truffles into melted chocolate and gently twirl or tap to remove excess coating.

# Place truffle back on cookie sheet and top with sprinkles. Repeat with remaining balls until finished.

# Chill truffles in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
