Ingredients
Scale:
1 box red velvet cake mix
3 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
1 cup blue raspberry-flavored frosting (store-bought or homemade)
12 oz white chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil (for thinning, optional)
Red and blue sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Mix using an electric mixer on medium speed until the batter is smooth and well combined, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely for at least 30 minutes.
Once cooled, crumble the cake into a large bowl using your hands until it resembles fine crumbs.
Incorporate the blue raspberry frosting into the crumbled cake. Mix thoroughly until the cake holds together when formed into balls.
Roll the mixture into approximately 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
Dip each chilled cake ball into the melted white chocolate and place back on the parchment-lined sheet.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle red and blue sprinkles on top of each cake ball. Allow the chocolate coating to set completely for about 15-20 minutes.
Serve your beautiful Red, White, and Blue Cake Balls as a festive dessert.
