Easy Pumpkin Spice Cake Balls Recipe

These cake balls are made from moist pumpkin spice cake crumbled and mixed with cream cheese frosting, then rolled into bite-sized balls and coated in chocolate. The recipe takes about 1 hour from start to finish and yields approximately 24 cake balls.

Ingredients

1 box of pumpkin spice cake mix
1 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup chocolate chips (for coating)
Sprinkles or chopped nuts for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin spice cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until well combined and pour into the prepared pan.
Bake the Cake: Bake according to package instructions, usually around 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
Make the Frosting: In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
Crumble the Cake: Once the cake is cool, crumble it into a large bowl. Add the cream cheese frosting and mix until fully combined.
Form the Cake Balls: Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill: Refrigerate the cake balls for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Coat the Cake Balls: Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Dip each cake ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, and place back on the parchment paper.
Decorate: If desired, sprinkle with sprinkles or chopped nuts before the chocolate sets.
Serve: Once the chocolate has hardened, enjoy your delicious pumpkin spice cake balls!
