How to Make Carrot Cake Ball Truffles

Ingredients:

1 box of carrot cake mix, plus ingredients listed on the back of the box
Cream cheese
Vanilla almond bark or white chocolate melting wafers
Roasted, salted pecans, chopped small

Directions:
Prepare the carrot cake, according to the box directions, and set the cream cheese out to soften.

Allow the cake to cool completely,

Then crumble into a large mixing bowl.

Drop the cream cheese into the bowl by spoonfuls. Use a spatula to fold the cream cheese in, or for best results, use your hands to combine the cream cheese and cake well.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Use a cookie scoop to scoop the cake mixture, and roll into a ball. Continue with all of the cake.

Freeze the cake balls for 30 minutes.
Melt the almond bark or white chocolate melting wafers by microwaving for 30 second increments, stirring well in between.
Cover the cake balls, by placing them onto a fork, and spooning the melted bark or chocolate over the top, until coated.

Let the excess coating drip off.
Place them onto the parchment paper, and quickly sprinkle with the chopped pecans, or the topping of your choice.

Chill the coated cake balls in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or until the coating has set.

Variations

• Different Coatings: Swap white chocolate for almond bark or your favorite melting wafers. Chocolate or vanilla, the choice is yours!
• Homemade Carrot Cake: Skip the boxed mix and use your own carrot cake recipe for an extra personal touch.
• Toppings: Substitute pecans for sprinkles or top with edible carrot-shaped decorations for added charm.
