Grab a box of your favorite white cake mix or scratch recipe.
Follow the basic instructions on the box substituting prickly pear juice for water, add an additional egg, and I used ghee.

Bake cake according to package instructions.
Cool cake completely and crumble into a large bowl.
Mix one 10 oz container of cream cheese icing into the crumbled cake mix until it forms a large ball.
Cover and place in refrigerator until chilled.
Use a cookie scoop to make even sized balls.
Melt white chocolate.
Use a toothpick to dip cake balls into white chocolate.
Set in either a small hors d'oeuvre bowl or a mini cupcake wrapper.
Add a tiny spoon or pick.
Let harden.

Ingredients - Per Cup

Basic steps -

I started by folding the deli meats to fit inside the cup
Next, I added my cheese. I used one whole cheese stick and then cut small squares of cheddar and mozzarella to place into the cups
Then we add pretzel rods, some celery, and sprinkled some cashews into the bottom of the cup
Take the toothpick and place some Greek and pimento olives and add them to the cup
Last sprinkle some parmesan cheese onto a baking sheet with parchment paper in the oven for 3 min. You get a cute little parmesan chip to add to the cup
