Follow the instructions on the box cake mix to prepare your favorite flavor. Preheat your oven to the required temperature and bake for approximately 25–30 minutes.

Crumble the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl and add ½ cup of frosting, mixing until it forms a dough-like consistency.

Shape the mixture into 24 balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and chill them in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.

Melt the candy melts or chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and mix in vegetable or coconut oil for a glossy finish.

Dip each cake ball into the melted coating, allowing excess to drip off, and decorate with festive toppings.

Chill the tray in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set the coating completely.
