How to Make Carrot Cake Balls

To start, set the oven to 350 degrees and use pam to grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.

First, add the sugar, oil, and eggs into a standing mixer and combine.

Secondly, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon and combine.

Thirdly, use a spatula to fold in the carrots and walnuts.

Next, add the batter into the pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.

Place onto a cooling rack.

Next, use your hands to crumble to cake in a large bowl.

After, add into 2-3 scoops of frosting and combine until it forms a dough.

Next, separate into cake ball portions using an ice cream scoop and roll into a ball.

Arrange onto the prepared sheet.

Continue until all the dough is gone, then place into the fridge for 1 hour.

After, take out and put onto the counter.

Place the chocolate wafers in a double boiler to melt.

Next, dip the balls into the chocolate with a fork to coat.

Remove the excess chocolate by shaking.

Put back onto the sheet and top with chopped walnuts.

Next, continue until you have coated all of the balls.

Finally, let cool for 15 minutes to harden.
