Guest guest Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I've made those before, they're awesome! You've got a classier name for them, though, I'm going to adopt that. I always just called them " Oreo Balls " ! My mom makes " cake balls " similarly -- make a cake mix (or your favorite from-scratch recipe), crumble, add frosting, make into balls, freeze (because they're softer than Oreos), and then dip in chocolate. Yum! Audrey S.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Oh man, but it's sooo much fun!!! LOL We made molasses taffy once or tried to and I had to warn my hubby that what looks like doggie poo in the fridge is actually candy and to not freak out. He said he had to step back because he had forgotten what I said about it and thought it was for a minute until he remembered. LOL We all absolutely loved the taste though. We are going to try again when it isn't so humid. It was fun!! But ya need tough fingers that stuff is HOT! ~Tee - Donnalilacflower Thursday, April 02, 2009 1:24 PM What I can't make Terri Take it from me, DON'T.
