Easy Cake Batter Truffles
As you have learned by now, my family loves all things cake batter. We have made our Cake Batter Buddies at least a dozen times and still can’t get enough of them!
Don’t be fooled by the name- there are no eggs in this! It’s safe to eat!
Even better- these truffles require no baking! They are quick, easy, and make an amazing treat that people will devour!

  16. SusaGail says:
    Is it safe to eat unbaked flour and cake mix? In all the baking I've done over the years, I can' think of one recipe where flour was used and not baked. Please clarify.
  17. The Bishop Family says:
    Awesome! I was inspired by this!!! I made them for my daughter's 1st birthday yesterday and featured your link on my blog: http://bishopsfamilysite.blogspot.com/2012/04/avas-rainbow-1st-birthday-party.html

    this recipe is amazing!! I used funfetti cake mix the second time I made them and they were just as delicious and I didn't have to mix in sprinkles by hand. thanks for posting this!
  19. Barb says:
    I've read before that it is not safe to eat uncooked flour something about parasites that could be in it or something that the heat kills. Maybe you could microwave it a bit to be on safe side.
  20. mandkrouse says:
    Just made these - and they are DELICIOUS!!
    Thanks for the great recipe; our oven is broken & my husband's birthday is this weekend....this was a great cake alternative :)
  21. Silver Foxx says:
    Can you use any flavor cake mix and get the same result? Can we substitute the flour & white sugar for powdered sugar instead to avoid the face flour debate?
  22. Camille says:
    I think that using any flavor of cake mix would be fine! However, I don't know about using powdered sugar in place of the flour and white sugar . . . it might not work quite the same. Let us know if you try it!
  23. kristen small says:
    Just made! Wonderful!
  24. Amanda Vanderpool says:
    These are so yummy, will def. make again. Thanks for the recipie!
  25. Jennifer Gilbert says:
    I replaced the yellow cake mix with french vanilla... amazing
  26. Renee says:
    I made these yesterday, and took them out of the refrigerator too soon apparently because they all cracked from expansion. Tasted good though.
  27. Renu Prasad says:
    Can you plz tell me how safe it is to eat flour n yellow cake mix without cooking. I've 8yr old who reacts to most of the food. Than i've a 3yr old who reacts to some food. BUT i really like most of the recipes @ this site. Today is the 1st time i've come to this site. I love to make Mickey Oreo treat but it sounds too sweet as schools have restrictions. I want to make something for my son's class for Thanksgiving. Thanking you, really appreciate your recipes.
  28. Cyd says:
    We do not have any reactions to any of these ingredients, so we have never had a problem with this recipe. You would need to decide if flour and yellow cake mix will be hard on your kids. We have taken the Mickey oreo treats for class parties and they are always a huge hit! Hope this helps and best of luck with a Thanksgiving treat for your son's class!
  29. Carrie-Ann says:
    Just finished making these, soooo good!!!
  30. Elizabeth says:
    THESE TASTE TERRIBLE
  31. Isobel says:
    Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on. Any suggestions? Stop by my web blog seo (http://google.com)
  32. camille says:
    I just made these and my family love them, turned out great
  33. Julee says:
    Super easy to make and I got good reviews, but boy are they sweet!!! Anyone have suggestion to decrease how sweet they are? Reduce sugar increase cake mix?
  34. Wolf says:
    .... It's flour... And cake mix.... Of course it's safe... What makes you possibly think it wouldn't be?
  35. Quin says:
    I assume that step 9 (Once melted, quickly stir in cake mix until incorporated completely.) is referring to that 4 Tablespoons of cake mix stirred into the almond bark. Does that make the melted part coat more easily or something?
  36. Cyd says:
    Yes, the truffle coating is the almond bark and 4 tablespoons of yellow cake mix. It adds a great flavor the the truffles.
  37. Quin says:
    Awesome, thanks!! Planning to make these for work ^_^
  38. Christine Turchi says:
