Candy Cane Valley and Sprinkle Delights

A few weeks ago my mom came to visit me and wanted to make "cake balls."  I'd never heard of them and when she described them to me, they sounded like a whole lot o' calories, so I politely declined.


And then I was on a search for special treats to make for friends for Christmas and I came across this recipe.


We didn't get a chance to make them in time for Christmas, so last night, Imani and I decided to make them for a special New Year's treat that we could give to friends.





Imani didn't like the name "Cake Balls" so she renamed them  . . .Candy Cane Valley and and Sprinkle Delights.   I love it.


  We made some with a chocolate coating




and some without.



 
They are absolutely delicious.


I should have listened to my mom. :-)


Happy New Year!

  1. If this is the recipe with cream cheese, these are sooo good. I make them with crushed Oreos (oreo balls). Here's a tip to make them fancy if you want: melt some white almond bark in a ziplock baggie, cut a tiny bit off the corner of the baggie and use it to pipe little squiggles of white almond bark on top of the balls. They look like truffles. Have a great New Year's eve.
