STRAWBERRY BON BONS image

Strawberry cake filled bon bons! Yummy! Everyone loves it! These bon bons, ROCK! I am editing this recipe 12/14. The strawberry cake filling was too soft even with refrigeration. Although I was told not to use the Nestle's Premier White Chocolate Chips for coating, I did use it and added several drops of red food coloring to...

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box strawberry cake mix
1/2 jar(s) strawberry frosting (8 oz.)
1 pkg 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 pkg nestle's premier white chocolate chips, melted
several drops red food coloring
candy sprinkles or tiny candy decorations

Steps:

  • 1. Make the strawberry cake according to the directions on the box.
  • 2. Allow the cake to cool completely.
  • 3. Crumble the cake into a large bowl, not too tiny but no large pieces.
  • 4. Combine in a small bowl, 1/2 a jar of strawberry frosting and softened cream cheese, blend well.
  • 5. Blend into the cake mixture and mix well. Chill until firm. I chilled it overnight.
  • 6. I used a cookie scoop for more uniformed sized balls and place them on a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Refrigerate.
  • 7. Melt the white chocolate chips in a large microwave-safe mug, stirring after each 30 second interval and adding a few drops of red food coloring to get the shade of pink that you like.
  • 8. Be sure that the consistency of the melted chocolate is not too thick and is smooth with no lumps remaining.
  • 9. Using a fork with thin tines and an ice tea spoon, dunk the balls into the chocolate and completely cover the balls then gently scooping them out with the fork and lightly shaking the excess off and placing them into the candy liners.
  • 10. If some of the cake is showing, use a toothpick covered with the coating and touch-up to close the holes and sprinkle right away with candy sprinkles.
  • 11. Do not refrigerate, but let it set in a cool area.

I love that these are a healthier alternative to other candy. They're still sweet and satisfying, but they're also made with real fruit.

These are the perfect make-ahead dessert. I made them the day before my party and they were still fresh and delicious the next day.

I used dark chocolate instead of white chocolate and they were still delicious. I think I might even prefer them with dark chocolate.

I had some trouble getting the chocolate to coat the strawberries evenly. Maybe I didn't temper the chocolate properly.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

These strawberry bon bons were a delight to make and even more delightful to eat! The combination of sweet strawberries, creamy white chocolate, and crunchy pistachios was perfect. I used fresh strawberries from my garden, and they were so flavorful.
