Bake you cake recipe and prepare the buttercream ahead of time

Once the cake is completely cooled, break it up in a large bowl and add the vanilla buttercream and ½ cup of the crushed candy canes and peppermint oil

Mix to the consistency you desire by adding more or less buttercream to taste

Scoop the balls onto parchment lined sheet pans and then roll them for perfect shape. *Be sure to wear gloves to prevent any bacteria getting trapped inside the cake balls! No one wants to bite into a moldy cake ball!

Refrigerate while you melt the vegan white chocolate then dip them to coat completely, be sure to roll them into the crushed candy cakes before the chocolate sets
