Key Lime Cake Ball Truffles
- 1/4 cups Key Lime Juice (for 1/4 Cup You'll Need Roughly 8-10 Key Limes)
- 1 box White Cake Mix, 18 Ounce Size Box
- 1/4 cups Canola Oil
- 3/4 cups Water
- 3 whole Egg Whites
- 4 teaspoons Key Lime Zest, Divided
- 12 ounces, weight White (vanilla) Frosting
- 16 ounces, weight White Chocolate
- 2 drops Green Food Coloring, More Or Less As Desired
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F.
- Zest and juice key limes. Pour the juice into a bowl through a strainer and set juice aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine cake mix, lime juice, oil, water, egg whites and 2 teaspoons lime zest. Beat to combine, eliminating as many lumps as possible. Transfer cake mix to a greased 9x13" baking dish and bake at 350u0b0F for about 25 minutes. Then remove the cake from the oven and let it cool.
- When cake is cool, crumble it into a clean, medium sized mixing bowl. Add frosting and remaining 2 teaspoons lime zest and stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Then, form the mixture into small balls. Place balls on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper and freeze for at least an hour.
- Melt the white chocolate according to package instructions.
- Dip the frozen cake balls in melted white chocolate and return the balls to the sheet of waxed paper to harden.
- Tint the remaining chocolate with green food coloring and drizzle it over the dipped balls. (Or, if you'd rather, decorate with green sprinkles.) Store in refrigerator.
