Description
These simple strawberry no bake cake balls combine strawberry cake mix, cream cheese, and white chocolate for the perfect treat for Valentine’s Day, birthday parties, and more!
Ingredients
- 15.25 oz strawberry cake mix
- 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup cream cheese chips, roughly chopped
- 20 oz Ghirardelli vanilla melting wafers
- Sprinkles of your choice, optional
- 1/2 cup Wilton pink candy melts, optional
- 1/2 cup Wilton bright pink candy melts, optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Spread the dry cake mix on the baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes, or until it reaches 165°F. Let it cool completely.
3. Add cooled cake mix to a medium bowl. Add softened cream cheese and beat with hand mixer on medium-high until light and creamy.
4. Fold in cream cheese chips with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
5. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 2 hours.
6. Line two baking sheets with parchment or wax paper. Use a 1.5 tablespoon scoop to portion dough onto sheets, then roll each into a smooth ball.
7. Let the balls rest on the baking sheet for 15 minutes to expand slightly.
8. Melt vanilla melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.
9. Dip each ball into the melted vanilla chocolate, tap off excess, and return to baking sheet. Immediately add sprinkles before the coating hardens.
10. Melt candy melts using same method and drizzle over truffles using a spoon or piping bag for decoration.
11. Allow all decorations to set and harden completely before serving.
Notes
Make sure to add sprinkles before the white chocolate hardens so they stick properly.
Dip and decorate one ball at a time for best results—it’s easier with a helper!
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days due to the cream cheese.
Let truffles sit out for 15 minutes before serving if you prefer them at room temperature.
