RED VELVET CAKE BITES

Red Velvet Cake Bites image

Add something a little different to your cookie trays this year. We love red velvet for these bites, but any cake mix flavor can work. I've rolled chopped macadamia nuts into pineapple cake and dipped them into white chocolate. Whatever you do, have fun! -Anne Powers, Munford, Alabama
