Buying truffles is very expensive, but they are actually quite simple to make and require simple ingredients with this recipe and instructions. It doesn’t require much more than making a cake!
We want to share the step-by-step process to make these cute Easter Bunny Cake Truffles treat! You can also put them on a stick and make hopping bunny pops!
Ingredients:
- 2 12 oz. packages of white chocolate chips
- 1 box white cake mix (plus required ingredients)
- 1⁄2 cup vanilla or cream cheese frosting
- 1 bag large marshmallows
- 40 mini marshmallows
- Pink sugar sprinkles
- Pink heart shaped sprinkles
- 1⁄2 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Prepare and bake cake as directed on box. Let cool completely.
2. Crumble cake into a large bowl. Add frosting and mix thoroughly (it may be easier to use fingers to mix together).
3. Roll mixture into 1” balls. Chill in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour (or freezer for 30 minutes).
4. Cut the edge of a large marshmallow diagonally in the shape of ears. Place the sticky side of the marshmallow into a bowl of pink sugar sprinkles.
5. Roll mini marshmallows in hands to create a ball that will be the bunny tail.
6. Once cake balls are cooled, melt white chocolate according to package directions. Using a fork, dip and completely coat cake ball. Let the excess drip off and place on a wax lined baking sheet.
7. Quickly, before white chocolate dries, place 2 marshmallow pieces (ears) on top of the cake ball, and hold in place until the coating sets. Then stick one heart-shaped sprinkle on the front of the cake ball for the nose, and a mini marshmallow tail on his behind. Repeat until all cake pops are used.
8. Melt chocolate chips in microwave. Place melted chocolate in a bag with a very small round frosting tip. Draw two dots for eyes.
