Ingredients

  • 1 Box Chocolate Cake (Prepared, baked & Slightly Cooled)
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese, room temperature
  • 3 Tbsp Butter, room temperature
  • 2 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 1 Tbsp Whipping Cream, or Milk
  • 1 Package Dark Chocolate Almond Bark
  • 1/4 Cup Candy Melts *optional
  • Sprinkles *optional

Instructions

  • Prepare and bake your boxed cake according to package directions.
  • Prepare a square or rectangular baking dish with wax or parchment paper and set aside.
  • Whip together butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Add powdered sugar and mix until combined. Add vanilla and whipping cream or milk and whip until fluffy.
  • Add baked and slightly cooled cake to the frosting and mix until fully incorporated. Mixture will be thick and wet.
  • Spread the mixture in your prepared baking dish and cover with an additional piece of wax or parchment paper. Cover the dish with a lid or tinfoil and freeze at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  • When the cake mixture is frozen, cut into squares and pop them back into the freezer while you chop and melt your chocolate.
  • Drop each square, one by one, into the melted chocolate and flip to cover it completely in chocolate. Place on a piece of parchment or wax paper to cool and harden. If you will be adding something like sprinkles, make sure to do it while the chocolate is still wet.
  • If desired, decorate with drizzled melted chocolate in different colors.
  • Store in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer in a sealed container for up to 3 months.
