Steps:
- 1. Make the strawberry cake according to the directions on the box.
- 2. Allow the cake to cool completely.
- 3. Crumble the cake into a large bowl, not too tiny but no large pieces.
- 4. Combine in a small bowl, 1/2 a jar of strawberry frosting and softened cream cheese, blend well.
- 5. Blend into the cake mixture and mix well. Chill until firm. I chilled it overnight.
- 6. I used a cookie scoop for more uniformed sized balls and place them on a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Refrigerate.
- 7. Melt the white chocolate chips in a large microwave-safe mug, stirring after each 30 second interval and adding a few drops of red food coloring to get the shade of pink that you like.
- 8. Be sure that the consistency of the melted chocolate is not too thick and is smooth with no lumps remaining.
- 9. Using a fork with thin tines and an ice tea spoon, dunk the balls into the chocolate and completely cover the balls then gently scooping them out with the fork and lightly shaking the excess off and placing them into the candy liners.
- 10. If some of the cake is showing, use a toothpick covered with the coating and touch-up to close the holes and sprinkle right away with candy sprinkles.
- 11. Do not refrigerate, but let it set in a cool area.
STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE BON BONS
These are dainty little dessert treats that can be whipped up in a jiffy. Make for two for a romantic dessert, or spend the day making a batch for a dinner party. :) We created these treats from Recipe #244193. If you use a cheesecake that has a graham cracker crust, you can use that for the graham cracker crumbs and just add the sweet biscuits to that. For more chocolate flavor, after you put the crumb mixture on the strawberries, dip the bottoms in chocolate coating and allow to firm up. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, biscuit crumbs, and 3 Tbsp of the cheesecake and set aside. Hull the strawberries from the bottom (opposite the leaves) and set aside. NOTE: A potato peeler works great!
- Place remaining cheesecake (without crumbs) into a pastry bag. Fill strawberries with cheese filling, then smear the bottoms of strawberries with the crumb mixture.
- Drizzle hot fudge syrup over strawberries. Serve immediately or cover tray with plastic wrap and refrigerate till needed later that day.

Tips:
- Prepare your strawberries properly: Wash your strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems. Make sure they are completely dry before dipping them in chocolate.
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the taste of your bonbons. Use a good quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate.
- Temper your chocolate properly: Tempering your chocolate is an important step that helps to stabilize it and give it a smooth, glossy finish. If you don't temper your chocolate, it will be more likely to seize and become grainy.
- Be patient: Dipping strawberries in chocolate takes time and patience. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with messy-looking bonbons.
- Get creative: You can decorate your bonbons with a variety of toppings, such as sprinkles, chopped nuts, or edible glitter. You can also drizzle them with melted chocolate or caramel.
Conclusion:
Strawberry bonbons are a delicious and elegant treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you'll be able to create beautiful and delicious strawberry bonbons that everyone will love.
