Pumpkin Spice Cake Balls

Tis the season for pumpkin spice and everything nice. These pumpkin spice cake balls will surely take care of your pumpkin spice craving. They are the perfect way to celebrate the beginning  of fall.

These pumpkin spice cake balls are packed with the perfect flavor. Dense pumpkin spice cake on the inside, white chocolate with butterscotch drizzle and graham cracker crumble on the outside.

They are a perfect sweet treat!

For this recipe, you will need vanilla cream cheese frosting, white cake mix, pumpkin spice, butterscotch chips, white chocolate chips and graham crackers.

First you want to bake your cake as directed on the package.

Let them sit and cool on a cooling rack before handling.

In a large bowl, break up the cakes with your hands.

This is the fun part. Now you want to take your hands and crumble the cake completely until it is all crumbs and no big pieces.

Take your frosting and pumpkin spice and add to the crumbles.

Mix everything together well until completely combined.

Once everything is combined you want to roll dough into balls.

Place the cake balls on a baking sheet, and let them chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.

When the 15 minutes is up, keep cake balls in fridge while you melt the white chocolate chips.

I used the entire package of the white chocolate chips. I melted them in increments of 1 1/2 cups and melted more when I needed more.

It makes for an easier cleanup to use a cooling rack with some parchment paper underneath for this process. It’s easier to use a fork when dipping the cake balls in the white chocolate. A fork allows excess chocolate to drip off while a spoon just collects excess chocolate and makes the chocolate coating too thick.

Now, keep in mind…this process does get messy, and the cake balls don’t always turn out to look perfect like you want them to. But, the taste is the most important part!

Once all of your cake balls are all coated with chocolate you want to melt your butterscotch chips, and crush your graham crackers in a plastic baggy.

I used about 1 cup of my butterscotch chips. After I melted them, I added it to a plastic baggy and cut the tip of the baggy. Just be careful, the heat of the melted chips might cause the baggy to split open at different areas.

You can also just take a spoon and drizzle the melted butterscotch chips on top rather than place them in a baggy.

You can do whatever design you want on top with the butterscotch.

After you drizzle the butterscotch, you want to sprinkle your crushed graham cracker.

And there you have it. Pumpkin spice cake balls. They are delicious!

Enjoy my friends!
