- Crumble cake mix in large bowl and mix in icing till all the cake is moist. (It’s easiest to use hands).
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours until firm enough to roll.
- Roll filling into 1.5-inch balls and place on waxed paper. Refrigerate for another hour to chill them back up.
- Place candy coating in a small, deep dish (a short drinking glass works well) and microwave at half power for 1 minute, and then for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until candy is melted. Do not over-cook candy!
- Working with 5 balls at a time (keep the rest in the refrigerator), place the tip of a sucker stick into the candy and then push into a ball, about ¾ of the way through.
- Dip ball in melted candy coating until the candy touches the stick.
- Carefully shake off excess and sprinkle with candy sprinkles.
- Stand upright in styrofoam block.
- Substitute different types of cake, frosting and candy coating for different flavors.
