Cake.

Cake batter.

Frosting.

Sprinkles.

Digging in with a fork.

...or your hands.

It doesn't get much better than cake.  Just ask Jim Gaffigan.  He's a genius.

If you asked me, I'd like to roll around in some cake.  I'm willing to bet that Jim would partake in cake-rolling, too.

Playing with your food is fun and if you'd like to play around with your cake (which is even more fun) you should make some cake balls.  Funfetti cake balls are serious fun.

Mix together crumbled cake and frosting, roll them into balls, cover them in chocolate... what's not to like about that?  The process and the results are deliciously exciting.

Funfetti Cake Balls
1 vanilla cake (I used my Vanilla Buttercake recipe)
vanilla or buttercream frosting (frosting from a can would also work nicely)
rainbow sprinkes
white chocolate (as always, I use Ghirardelli)
1 teaspoon canola oil

1. Crumble cake in a bowl with your hands.  Mix in frosting and sprinkles and combine well.  Freeze the mixture for half an hour until firm.
2. Roll cake mixture into tablespoon-sized balls.  Return to the freezer for another 15 minutes.
3. Melt chocolate and oil over a double boiler.  Dip cake balls into chocolate and top with sprinkles.  Place in refrigerator to harden.
