Patriotic Cake Balls
Ingredients
Directions
Break Wicked Jack’s Butter Rum Tavern Cake into crumbs. Mix in vanilla frosting (Mix in small amounts at a time. Goal is to have a mix that is easy to shape). Roll mix into 1-inch balls and place on wax paper lined cookie sheet and freeze for 15 minutes. Melt white Candy Melts (following directions on packaging) with a teaspoon of shortening. Dip the tip of a lollipop stick in the melted candy and stick halfway into a cake ball. Dip the cake pop into the melted candy and coat well. Add your patriotic sprinkles before the melted candy sets. Place pop in foiled-covered Styrofoam.
Red, White and Blue Cream Cheese Frosting
Ingredients
- 4 ounces unsalted butter, softened
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Red and Blue frosting
Directions
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer. With the mixer at slow speed, add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until the frosting becomes smooth and creamy. Beat in the vanilla extract. Separate frosting into 3 smaller bowls. In two bowls, separately mix in a few drops of red and blue frosting. Spread on Wicked Jack’s Tavern Red Velvet rum cake in desired pattern. For some more flare add some blueberries and strawberries to the top.
