1 box of cake mix
1 can of frosting
1 bag of melting chocolate
Make the cake according to the instructions. When it is baked and cooled crumbled it up into a bowl. Make sure the crumbles are pretty fine. Mix in 1/2 of the can of frosting. Roll into balls and place on a cookie sheet. Freeze for 3 hours or over night. Melt the chocolate in a pot on low heat. Remove the cake balls from the freezer and leave or you may insert a sucker stick. Dip the cake ball in the melted chocolate. Make sure not to twist the ball in the chocolate. Dip, pull out, turn and then dip again. If you turn the ball in the chocolate it may break apart. When the chocolate has cooled or hardened they are ready to eat.

Chocolate Dippy Donuts
1 Can Store bought biscuits ( I used pilsbury grands)
1 4 ounce bar Baker's German Chocolate
1/2 ounce unsweetened chocolate
1 stick unsalted butter
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
oil for frying (peanut works best)
Preheat fryer or cast iron skillet with oil to 350 degrees. Separate pre-cut biscuits. Make a hole in the middle with your hand and sculpt dough into a doughnut shape. Place doughnut in the fryer and cook 4 to 5 minutes, flipping to fry both sides. Place doughnuts aside onto a paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil.
Melt the chocolate and butter in a saucepan over very low heat. Stir in the sugar, alternating with the evaporated milk, blending well. Raise the heat to medium and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat and cook, stirring, until the mixture becomes thick and creamy, about 8 minutes. Stir in the vanilla then remove the pan from the heat.
Stick a fork through the hole of the doughnut and dip the doughnuts immediately into the chocolate mixture before the chocolate starts to cool. Place the doughnuts on a plate and serve when the chocolate on the doughnuts sets.
