Cake Balls, the recipe

1 cake mix, eggs, oil, water (as per box)
1 tub frosting
12 oz. chocolate chips (or dipping chocolate, or similar)

Prepare cake according to package instructions. Let cool.
Put cake in large bowl. Add tub of frosting. Mix with a large spoon.
Using a small scooper, shape cake mixture into balls. Feel free to use your hands.
Place balls on waxed-paper lined baking sheet (or similar). Freeze for a couple hours. Melt chocolate chips. Working quickly, dip cake balls in melted chocolate. Can use a toothpick. Place on clean waxed paper. Let chocolate harden. Enjoy.

I've made them only once (yesterday), and I have to say, I'm no expert at dipping things in chocolate. Next I plan to try German chocolate cake with pecan-coconut frosting (probably semi-sweet choc. coating). The flavor combinations are endless.
