PINK SNOW BALLS
These delicious decadent snow balls are cake like treats,coated in pink coconut I'm unsure of the origin's of this Pretty in Pink Treat. They resemble whoopie pies: Snow balls are neither a cookie or a pie. They have a soft cake like texture but can be moulded and shaped like scones.

Steps:
- 1. Line a 4 quart round bowl with plastic wrap. Tear angel food cake into bite size pieces. Drain pineapple thoroughly and reserve the syrup. You should have 1 cup of syrup.

Tips:
- Make sure your oven is preheated before you start baking. This will help ensure that your cake bakes evenly.
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the ingredients combine more easily and create a smoother batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will help ensure that the cake is fully baked.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
- If you are using a store-bought frosting, you may need to thin it out with a little bit of milk or water. This will help it spread more easily.
- Be creative with your decorations! You can use sprinkles, chopped nuts, or even candy to decorate your cake.
Conclusion:
Snowballs cake is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. The light and fluffy cake is complemented by the rich and creamy frosting, and the coconut flakes add a touch of sweetness and texture. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this cake at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your cake turns out perfectly.
