Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the vanilla cake mix according to the package instructions and pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once the cake has cooled, crumble it into fine crumbs in a large mixing bowl. Gradually add the strawberry frosting to the cake crumbs, mixing with your hands until the mixture is moldable. If it feels too dry, add a bit more frosting; if it's too wet, mix in additional cake crumbs.
- Scoop out 1-2 tablespoons of the truffle mixture and roll it into smooth balls. Place the rolled truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or freeze them for 15 minutes to firm up.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the pink candy melts and a teaspoon of coconut oil. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue heating in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the chilled truffles from the refrigerator. Using a fork, dip each truffle into the melted pink candy coating, allowing the excess to drip off. Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment-lined sheet.
- While the coating is still wet, sprinkle crushed freeze-dried strawberries on top of the truffles. Once the pink coating sets, melt white chocolate and drizzle it over the truffles.
- Let the truffles set completely at room temperature for about 30–45 minutes or refrigerate for 10–15 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
