Bite-Sized christmas Treats

Plum Cake Balls are small, rich, and moist balls made from leftover plum cake or freshly baked fruit cake. They are easy to make, decorate, and serve, making them perfect for holiday parties, gifts, or snacking.

Ingredients

· 2 cups crumbled plum cake (eggless or regular)

· 2–3 tbsp cream cheese or butter (to bind)

· ½ cup chocolate chips or melted chocolate (for coating)

· 2–3 tbsp finely chopped nuts (optional – almonds, pistachios)

· Sprinkles, desiccated coconut, or chopped nuts for decoration

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Cake Base

· Crumble the plum cake into fine crumbs in a large bowl.

2. Add Binding Agent

· Mix in cream cheese or softened butter gradually until the mixture holds together and can be shaped into balls.

3. Shape the Balls

· Take small portions of the mixture and roll into 1–1.5 inch balls using your hands.

· Place them on a lined tray or plate.

4. Chill the Balls

· Refrigerate the balls for 15–20 minutes to firm up before coating.

5. Coat with chocolate (Optional)

· Melt the chocolate in a microwave or double boiler.

· Dip each ball into melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off.

· Place on parchment paper to set.

6. Decorate

· Roll balls in desiccated coconut, chopped nuts, or festive sprinkles while chocolate is still wet.

· Let them set completely at room temperature or in the fridge.

Tips for Perfect Plum Cake Balls

· Use dense plum cake for easier binding; lightly dry cake in the oven if too moist.

· Adjust cream cheese/butter to get the right consistency for rolling.

· Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 5–7 days.

· Great for using leftover plum cake and reducing waste.

These Plum Cake Balls are easy, festive, and delicious bite-data-sized treats, perfect for christmas gifting, parties, or a sweet snack for family and friends.
