German Chocolate Cake Bites
- FOR THE CAKE BITES:
- 1 bag (6 Ounce Size) Sweet Coconut Flakes
- 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1-1/2 cup Ground Graham Crackers
- 1/2 cups Chopped Pecans
- 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
- 5 Tablespoons Butter, Softened
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE GANACHE:
- 1 bag (12 Ounce Size) Chocolate Morsels, Chopped
- 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- In a large mixing bowl combine the coconut flakes, powdered sugar, ground graham crackers, and chopped pecans. Mix well and set aside.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream and the butter into a small saucepan; cook over medium-low heat until butter melts, stirring frequently.
- Remove from heat and pour the coconut mixture into the cream mixture.
- Mix well and set aside to completely cool.
- Shape the coconut mixture into small balls and set on a wax paper-lined baking tray. When finished shaping them, put the cake bites into the fridge to set, about 1 hour.
- While they chill, prepare the chocolate ganache. Place the chopped chocolate morsels into a medium bowl.
- Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil. When the cream has come to a boil, remove the pan from the heat and pour the cream over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth. Allow the ganache to cool slightly.
- Take the cake bites out of the fridge and begin dipping them into the chocolate ganache. Set them on a sheet of wax paper to set, for about 1 to 2 hours.
