  After the mixture has firmed up in the fridge use a small scoop to scoop out small balls of the mixture and roll them up neatly. Place them on a cookie sheet that's been lined with wax paper. Put the cookie sheet in the freezer for an hour after you roll the cake mixture into balls so they can further firm up enough so they can be dipped without falling apart.

  Once the cake balls are firm enough to dip, melt the other 2 cups of white chocolate chips down with the paraffin and return it to the baking pan after its been dipped to cool off and set. The chocolate will set almost instantly so if you're going to decorate them do it FAST! Keep refrigerated until ready to serve them.
