Champagne Strawberry Treats (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 box of strawberry-flavored cake mix.
02 -
1 and 1/4 cups of champagne.
03 -
1/3 cup of cooking oil (to make the cake).
04 -
3 big eggs.
05 -
One 16-ounce container of white frosting.
06 -
24 oz of white chocolate wafers (for melting).
07 -
2 tbsp of vegetable oil (to melt the chocolate).
08 -
Half a teaspoon of Wilton gold pearl dust.
09 -
1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract.
# Instructions:
01 -
Get your oven ready by heating it to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
02 -
Combine cake mix, champagne, oil, and eggs. Beat until it forms a smooth batter. Pour it into the pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until it's fully cooked.
03 -
Break the cooled cake into crumbs, then mix it with the frosting until it's all blended together. Chill this mix for a couple of hours or overnight.
04 -
Scoop out the mixture by tablespoons and roll them into little balls. Place them onto a tray lined with wax paper. Let them chill for 1 to 2 hours.
05 -
Microwave the white chocolate and oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted. Dip the balls into this, letting the extra chocolate drip off with the help of a fork. Set them on wax paper to dry.
06 -
Stir the pearl dust into lemon extract and paint each ball with it. If you want sprinkles, put them on before the chocolate hardens.
# Notes:
01 -
If you don't want to use champagne, swap it with milk or water.
02 -
Adding some oil to melted chocolate makes dipping easier.
03 -
Chilling the balls first keeps them from falling apart when dipping.
