Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box vanilla cake mix
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate coating
- Festive sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
- Prepare the cake base: Mix the cake mix, melted butter, eggs, and cream cheese in a large bowl.
- Bake your cake: Pour the batter into a greased cake pan and bake according to package instructions.
- Cool the cake completely before crumbling it into fine pieces in a mixing bowl.

- Coat each truffle in melted chocolate and let excess drip off.
