How to Make Red Velvet Cake Truffles

Pour the batter into a pan and bake. Let the cake cool. Break the cake into pieces. Mix the cake crumbles with the frosting and scoop the mixture into balls. Let the balls freeze. Dip the balls in melted chocolate and allow to set. Drizzle more chocolate on top.
