How I came up with these?? :)
I had made Eggless fruit & nut cake and the cake got stuck to the pan. I was feeling bad and wanted to do something with the cake as the taste was great. While browsing I saw cake balls recipe. I bought cream cheese frosting, Milk chocolate, Butter Scotch and semi sweet chocolate chips to experiment. It took me 5 hours to make these cake balls and then coat them with chocolate layer and it involves refrigeration. They taste so great that it'll be worth the effort.
I made these for my hubby's b'day. He doesn't like sweets/chocolates but he loved these. I treated my friends to these and they all loved it so much that they all wanted the recipe ;). Try them!!
Note: You can even use condensed milk instead of frosting.

Ingredients:
Eggless Fruit & Nut cake - 2 - you can use any cake
Frosting - I used store bought Duncan hines cream cheese flavor - 16 oz whole box - use lesser if using just one cake
Milk - 1/4 Cup [ Optional ]
Baking chocolate or chocolate chips of your choice. I used Hersheys Milk, Butter scotch and semi sweet Chocolate flavor.
Method Of Preparation:
Crumble the cake once its cool. You can refrigerate the crumbled mix until frosting is ready. This step is optional. I did it as I had to go to the store to buy the ingredients :)
Mix frosting to the crumbled cake and mix well until its moist. I added milk too. Now make balls according to the size you need. Refrigerate the balls at least for 20 - 30 mins. I left them overnight.
Melt the chocolate on low heat and dip the cake balls in it to coat. Refrigerate the balls for at least 2 hours. I used 3 varieties and
Milk chocolate: It was very difficult to melt and hardened easily. When it was soft, I used hands to coat the chocolate and make balls.
Chocolate: It melted easily and I just had to dip the cake balls to get chocolate coating.
Butter scotch : It melted easily and I just had to dip the cake balls to get the coating.
