Phew! What a mouthful!
These delicious little treats are made using your basic truffle/ rum ball method, I used red velvet cake as my base but have seen similar recipes using proper christmas cake (which I don't like). So.
Bake a red velvet chocolate cake.
Crumble up said cake once cool.
Add icing (cream cheese in this case)
And for extra flavour, a handful of chopped cranberries and a dash of rum.
Combine.
Roll into little balls and refrigerate. (I left mine in overnight)
'Whip up' another batch of cream cheese icing.
Drizzle over each mini pudding and add a cranberry to the top.
Drizzle over each mini pudding and add a cranberry to the top.
Refrigerate. Consume.
This is also a sneaky trick you can use for cake/ cupcakes/ muffin failures.
Dip in chocolate for truffles or decorate and add a stick for cake pops.
Bite sized mid winter christmas treats!

ReplyDeleteHi Lindsay, thanks for taking a look :) I was actually thinking the other day I need to get a wriggle on with my little list! I am loving your blog, looks like you have ended up in a beautiful part of the world x
ReplyDeleteYUM. They look fantastic! I really don't like proper Christmas cake either so the red velvet cake idea is much better :)
