Ingredients:
One box of red velvet cake mix (whichever brand you prefer)
⅓ cup cream cheese frosting (whichever brand you prefer)
12 oz white candy melts

Directions:
Bake the cake mix according to the package instructions and let it cool completely.

Crumble the cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl. Stir in the ⅓ cup of frosting to bind the crumbs.

Roll mixture into small balls and place on a large baking sheet prepared with parchment paper. Chill in the freezer until firm.

In a microwave safe bowl, melt the candy melts in the microwave at 30 second intervals, mixing as you go.

Dip each cake ball into the melted candy coating and place back on your baking sheet. Decorate with red sanding sugar, if desired, before the coating sets.
