Like you said, it's personal preference, I have heard anything from 1/2 a container to a whole container of frosting. I prefer super moist cake balls and don't have a problem with them being too gooey. I use a cookie scoop and then place them in the freezer for about 20 minutes to harden. Once they are hardened, I coat them and then immediately place them in the fridge where they stay until they are ready for the Party! :) Perhaps the frosting chosen makes a difference too. I typically use the Milk Chocolate Betty Crocker Frosting.

They were not simply moist, they were very gooey and mushy. I'm sure they would've been sufficiently moist with only half of the tub. That's just my personal preference. Other than that, great idea and great recipe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796855945385988879.post-14325842428722082882010-11-18T21:28:56.582-06:002010-11-18T21:28:56.582-06:00Thanks Laurie!
