Instructions
You can either bake a cake or a pan of brownies from scratch or out of a box then let them cool. Or you can buy a pan of brownies or cake already made.If you ask me this is a great time to take a shortcut and buy them already made. I would recommend using a more cake type brownie than a fudgy brownie.
Using a mixer beat cake until it is crumbly.
Add can of frosting and mix until combined. Mixture should be sticky.
Using a cookie scoop drop balls onto parchment lined baking sheet. Let balls set in the freezer for about 10 minutes so they firm up just a bit. Then roll balls shaping them into pretty little bites.
Melt dipping chocolate over a double broiler or in the microwave (I use the microwave and melt chocolate for 30 seconds then stir amd repeat until it's completely smooth).
Dip balls into chocolate and set back on baking sheet to completely set. If you want you can sprinkle a little extra coconut over the tops of the balls!
