Please see my other videos for the recipes for the cake and buttercream. Almond sour cream is a twist on my yellow cake recipe, I used almond extract and subbed out half of the milk for sour cream. Now, to be honest, cake balls are good, but they're not my favorite, I'd rather just eat the cake :D But they're easy to make, easier to eat and everyone else seems to just love them so that makes me enjoy making them. You could decorate them some with sprinkles or non-pariels. I haven't gotten that far yet, maybe one of these days.
And Bakerella, if you read this, know that'd I'd love to be at a class where you teach the art of making these :D I think I've made these maybe 5 times and only once had them turn out perfect.
The cinnamon bun recipe is from Cook's Country by America's Test Kitchen and believe me, it was AWESOME! Same with the chocolate chip cookies, they turn out huge and are really good but require some extra steps.
Baking isn't a problem, but I did try to frost a trial cake the other day and ow, no good. It's definitely been a test of patience, not my strong suit but God is good and He keeps working on me :D lol-I get a lot of people telling me I have a lot of patience to cake but that's just one area of my life, the whole reason I got tendinitis in the first place was my lack of patience over slowly pouring the ingredients into the mixer :D
And oh, you might start occasionally hearing a musical piece that I've already used in another video, but it's not always easy finding music to match. And I'm a minor key kind of person when it comes to music, lol, doesn't really match joyous caking!

I tried to make the cake balls but the chocolate melted really thick, even after adding about 5 tblsp of butter. I used regular milk chocolate chocolate bars. I melted the chocolate in a glass boil over a glass pan over a pot of boiling water (the boil was too small to go over the pot). When I dipped the cake balls into the chocolate it came out really swirly with a thicker layer of chocolate. Do you have any idea what went wrong?

[SeriousCakes]

@Rinabobina12345 Not all chocolates are made for melting, the kind I used is specifically made to be melted.

Why was this recommended if i watched a halo reach video?

[SeriousCakes]

@Loganthecowwentmoo I did a video showing how to make a Ghost from Halo Reach out of cake and also used the music from the game.
