Cake Balls aka Cake Pops

So before it got too hot today i decided i wanted us to make a snack because well i wanted cake and chocolate but thought why not try something new ?? My thoughts were something neat for the kids. Well before i post the recipe i will just give you my review.

It is extremely easy to do, very cheap and well my son did enjoy it but i on the other hand, hmm little messy. The texture was just too weird for me. The taste was fine as long as it had a lot of chocolate on it. You will not find any fancy pictures or writing for this recipe because well.... i am a straight to the point kind of gal ;)

1 bag chocolate chips $2.99 ( did not buy when on sale and no coupons)
