STRAWBERRY BON BONS

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.

STRAWBERRY BONBONS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• In a 4-quart heavy nonstick saucepan, heat sweetened condensed milk, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter and coconut to boiling, stirring constantly with wooden spoon. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring constantly, 10 to 15 minutes or until thick and shiny and starts to pull away from bottom and sides of pan. You will know mixture is ready when you tilt pan and mixture slides down easily. Transfer mixture to greased plate. Place in refrigerator or freezer until mixture is very cold. Make sure strawberries are completely dry before making the bonbons. Grease hands with unsalted butter. Scoop up generous tablespoonful of cold coconut mixture; flatten in the palm of your hand. Place a strawberry over it and wrap coconut mixture around to conform to shape of strawberry. Repeat to use up coconut mixture. Place covered strawberries in freezer for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, use double boiler or microwave to melt dark chocolate. Cover cookie sheet with cooking parchment or waxed paper. Use dipping fork to drop covered strawberries one at a time into melted dark chocolate. Coat well with chocolate and then remove using dipping fork. Tap fork a few times against bowl to remove excess chocolate. Place the strawberries back on cookie sheet, flat side down. Refrigerate until chocolate is set. Use double boiler or microwave to melt white chocolate. Place melted white chocolate in freezer bag and cut off tip; drizzle chocolate over bonbons. Or place melted white chocolate in a squeeze bottle for drizzling. Refrigerate until chocolate is set. To give this as a gift, place them in food gift boxes and decorate as you wish. Store bonbons in refrigerator and serve within 24 hours.
