I have tried your Gusher Confetti Cake Balls!!!! Everything went fine up until the candy part!! I have candy discs that I used in another recipe and no problem I used the discs this time and couldn't get them to melt. Then I tried choc chip morsels and it wasn't thin enough, so i'm stuck with cake balls and no candy coating
