As you have learned by now, my family loves all things cake batter. We have made our Cake Batter Buddies at least a dozen times and still can’t get enough of them!
Don’t be fooled by the name- there are no eggs in this! It’s safe to eat!
It’s basically an eggless cake batter dough ball dipped in almond bark that is flavored with more cake batter . . . a cake batter overload (and it’s delicious!).
Even better- these truffles require no baking! They are quick, easy, and make an amazing treat that people will devour!
Easy Cake Batter Truffles
Recipe source: The Girl Who Ate Everything
1 ½ cups flour
1 cup yellow cake mix
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
3-4 Tablespoons milk
2 Tablespoons sprinkles
Truffle Coating:
16 ounces (8 squares) almond bark (or white candy melts)
4 Tablespoons yellow cake mix
Sprinkles
Beat together butter and sugar using an electric mixer until combined. Add cake mix, flour, salt, and vanilla and mix thoroughly. Add 3 Tablespoons of milk or more if needed to make a dough consistency. Mix in sprinkles by hand. Roll dough into one inch balls and place on a parchment or wax paper lined cookie sheet. Chill balls in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up.
While dough balls are chilling, melt almond bark in the microwave in 30 second intervals until melted. Stir between intervals. Once melted, quickly stir in cake mix until incorporated completely. Using a fork, dip truffles into almond bark and shake of excess bark by tapping the bottom of the fork on the side of your bowl. Place truffle back on the cookie sheet and top with sprinkles. Repeat with remaining balls until finished.
Chill cake batter truffles in the refrigerator until serving. Makes around 24-30 truffles.

White sugar? Are you refering to granulated or powdered?

These look amazing. How many does one batch yield? Can’t wait to make!!
Is it safe to eat unbaked flour and cake mix? In all the baking I’ve done over the years, I can’ think of one recipe where flour was used and not baked. Please clarify.
Awesome! I was inspired by this!!! I made them for my daughter’s 1st birthday yesterday and featured your link on my blog: http://bishopsfamilysite.blogspot.com/2012/04/avas-rainbow-1st-birthday-party.html
Blessings!

this recipe is amazing!! I used funfetti cake mix the second time I made them and they were just as delicious and I didn’t have to mix in sprinkles by hand. thanks for posting this!
I’ve read before that it is not safe to eat uncooked flour something about parasites that could be in it or something that the heat kills. Maybe you could microwave it a bit to be on safe side.
Just made these – and they are DELICIOUS!!
Thanks for the great recipe; our oven is broken & my husband’s birthday is this weekend….this was a great cake alternative
Can you use any flavor cake mix and get the same result? Can we substitute the flour & white sugar for powdered sugar instead to avoid the face flour debate?
I think that using any flavor of cake mix would be fine! However, I don’t know about using powdered sugar in place of the flour and white sugar . . . it might not work quite the same. Let us know if you try it!
These are so yummy, will def. make again. Thanks for the recipie!
I replaced the yellow cake mix with french vanilla… amazing
