Ingredients

Cake Balls

  • 1 box Keto Vanilla Cake Mix
  • 1/2 cup Keto Vanilla Icing

Coating and Decoration

  • 1 cup Keto Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Keto White Chocolate Chips
  • Keto or Regular Sprinkles (Christmas themed recommended)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the cake.
  2. Prepare Cake: Follow the instructions on the keto vanilla cake mix box to prepare the batter, then spread it evenly into a well greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  3. Bake Cake: Bake the cake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before proceeding.
  4. Crumble Cake: Once cooled, crumble the cake into small pieces in a large mixing bowl.
  5. Mix with Icing: Add the 1/2 cup of keto vanilla icing to the crumbled cake and stir thoroughly to combine the mixture evenly.
  6. Form Cake Balls: Roll the mixture into evenly shaped cake balls using your hands, ensuring they are compact and uniform in size.
  7. Chill Cake Balls: Place the cake balls on a parchment lined plate or platter and freeze them for 2 hours to firm up.
  8. Melt Chocolate Chips: Put the keto chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until completely melted and smooth.
  9. Dip Cake Balls in Chocolate: Dip half of the chilled cake balls into the melted chocolate, then place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  10. Add Sprinkles: Immediately sprinkle the dipped cake balls with Christmas themed or keto-friendly sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
  11. Melt White Chocolate Chips: Repeat the melting process with the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl.
  12. Dip Remaining Cake Balls: Dip the remaining cake balls in the melted white chocolate and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  13. Chill Cake Balls: Return all the decorated cake balls to the freezer or fridge and chill until the chocolate coatings have fully set.

Notes

  • Make sure the cake is completely cooled before crumbling to prevent a soggy texture.
  • Use keto-friendly cake mix and chocolate chips to keep the recipe low carb.
  • Freezing the cake balls before dipping helps the chocolate coating set better.
  • Store cake balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer for up to one week.
  • For a festive touch, customize sprinkles according to your occasion.
