2. Crumble the Cake: Break the cooled cake into fine crumbs using your hands or a food processor.
3. Mash the Filling: Mix the cake crumbs with cream cheese frosting until the mixture holds together when pressed.
4. Form the Cake Balls: Shape the mixture into small spheres (about the size of a golf ball). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
