Valentine Petit Fours...

Cute little bite sized cakes in no time at all!
Get yourself a frozen pound cake, a tub or two of icing and some pretty little sprinkles. Trim off the dark edges of the pound cake and discard, cut the frozen cake into one inch cubes. Put icing into bowls. Color with gel coloring if you'd like. Heat in microwave for 15 seconds. Icing should resemble heavy cream. Dip cake cube into icing (be sure to cover cube) slide fork onto under side of cube to pick up and tap onto the side of the bowl to remove excess icing. Carefully slide with knife onto foil lined sheet. Add sprinkles to top. Refridgerate until icing sets a bit (it will not harden). Carefully remove from foil and place onto small cupcake liners. ENJOY!
You could use your favorite flavor of icing instead of coloring it. I used about one and a half tubs of icing for one pound cake. It made 40 petit fours.
