All opinions are mine alone. #CollectiveBias You guys know me, I’m a girl who likes to be prepared, so even though we’re approaching Christmas, I am already testing new recipes for the new year. So for the moment, we are going to take a break from our regularly scheduled holiday affair and take a tour down March Madness with this Basketball Cake Balls recipe.
All you basketball fans, raise your hands! Whoop whoop! Although I tend to be a bigger fan of the pros, I do enjoy myself some March Madness ladder action. It might be because of the betting, but really it’s because of the parties and food. Not that I need an excuse to have a party. But it’s more fun when I have a ton of people I can impress feed with my masterpieces. Especially when they are as simple as this basketball cake balls recipe. So easy.
Whip up your favorite white cake and buttercream frosting (you can use your own recipe, my recipe, or grab a box if you’re short on time), crumble up the cake in a big bowl and add some frosting and a heaping pile of Skittles. Yes, Skittles. Seriously, amazing. I grabbed a big 54 oz. bag at Sam’s Club the other day just so I could make about a bazillion basketball cake balls. I don’t think there’s such a thing as too many Skittles. So throw a bunch in there. Mix it all together then form your cake balls and freeze them.
When you’re ready to take them out of the freezer, melt your chocolate and tint it, or use candy melts, and dip those bad boys quick, fast, and in a hurry. Once they’ve set you can draw on those basketball lines with more melted chocolate. Let them get completely set, then enjoy!
All the nom nom noms.
▢ 1 Pan White Cake homemade or boxed
▢ ¾ C Buttercream Frosting
▢ 2 C Skittles
▢ 12 oz Orange Candy Melts
▢ 3 Tbsp Vegetable Shortening divided
▢ 6 oz Chocolate Candy Melts
Prepare the white cake as directed, and allow to cool completely. Crumble into a large bowl with the frosting and Skittles, then combine by hand until thoroughly mixed. Roll into 1 ½ inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Freeze for 20 minutes.
Melt 2 Tbsp of shortening in a double boiler over medium heat. Once the water is boiling in the bottom pot, remove from heat, add the orange candy melts and stir until completely melted. Remove the cake balls from the freezer and dip into the candy melts until coated, then place on a sheet of wax paper to set.
While the cake balls are setting, Repeat the process with the last tablespoon of shortening and the chocolate candy melts, placing the melted chocolate into a small baggie with the corner just barely cut.

Basketball Cake Pops - The Weary Chef
Hi there! Are you watching college basketball these days? Whether you are kicking back and enjoying the games with your family or hosting a basketball-themed party, you are going to need some party food, and it’s not a party without dessert. These peanut butter chocolate Basketball Cake Pops are fun to make, and they will make your party so festive!
You only need a few ingredients to make these adorable treats, and they taste as good as they look. You can make these peanut butter cup stuffed brownies as basketball-shaped cake pops or as brownie bites (which are a bit less work). I had so much fun making these, and they would be perfect grab-and-go snacks during the game so you don’t miss a minute of the action! Pick up some brownie mix, mini peanut butter cups, peanut butter chips, and chocolate cookie icing, and get baking!
Make up your brownie mix, scoop it into a cake pop or mini muffin pan, and stuff a mini REESE’S® cup inside:
Bake, and you are ready to decorate! Use the cookie icing to draw lines across the top that cross like a plus. Then, draw circles across each end as shown in the photos. If you make brownie bites instead of cake pops, draw a plus on the top and then curves on each side. It takes a steady hand to do the decorations, but the design is pretty simple. If I can do it, I know you can!

Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray both sides of a cake pop pan with cooking spray (or a mini muffin tin if you are making brownie bites instead).
Prepare brownie mix as directed on package.
Fill each circle of the bottom of the cake pop pan with brownie batter. (A cookie scoop makes this job easier.) Carefully press a peanut butter cup into the center of each brownie. Place the other half of the cake pop pan on top, and secure the latches closed. Bake in preheated oven for 16 minutes.
Remove pan from oven, and allow to cool for 15-20 minutes. Remove top of pan, and carefully remove brownies from pan. Cool on a wire rack completely. (You can cool these in the freezer to speed up the process.)
(If your pan only makes 12 cake pops, you will need three pans or repeat steps 3 and 4 twice.)
You may have ridges around the centers of your brownie balls. Carefully slice those off with a serrated knife to shape your cake pops into basketball shapes. Now you are ready to decorate!
Pour your peanut butter chips and shortening into a deep, narrow bowl or measuring cup. Heat in the microwave for 45 seconds, stir, and then heat for 30 seconds longer. Stir very well until all shortening and peanut butter chips are melted and smooth. (Heat an additional 15-30 seconds if needed.) Stir in food coloring.
Dip the tip of each lollipop stick into the melted peanut butter, and carefully insert a stick into the bottom center of each brownie pop. (Be careful not to push through the top.) Now, submerge each pop completely into the peanut butter coating, lift it out, and hold it upside down over the bowl to allow the excess frosting to drip off. Then, stick the lollipop stick into a piece of Styrofoam to hold the cake pop upright. (You can also lay it on a piece of parchment paper, but you will end up with one flatter side.) Repeat for each pop.
Once peanut butter frosting has hardened, which takes 5-10 minutes, use the cooking icing to draw on basketball lines as shown.
Recipe Notes
To make brownie bites instead of cake pops, use a mini muffin tin instead of a cake pop pan. Dip the tops of the cooled brownies into the melted peanut butter frosting, allow the excess to drip off, and then set them upright. After the frosting has hardened, draw basketball lines with cookie icing as shown. Makes 24 brownie bites.

Basketball Basics - Rules, Concepts, Definitions and Player Positions
Fortunately, the rules of basketball are quite simple.
However, if you are coaching younger players, these rules can be easily forgotten once they are out in the open.
The three second rule (which we will discuss in detail later in this article) is just one of many great examples.
But before you can teach your team the rules, you must know them yourself.
So keep reading because by the end of this article you will be up to date with all the rules of basketball so you can educate your players and help them develop throughout the season!
Rules
Basketball is a team sport.
Two teams of five players each attempt to score by throwing a ball through a hoop 10 feet above the ground.
The game is played on a rectangular floor, called a court, with rings at each end.
The court is divided into two main parts by a mid-court line.
If the offensive team puts the ball into play behind the half-court line, they have ten seconds to kick the ball over the half-court line.
If not, the defense gets the ball.
Once the offensive team has brought the ball over the half-court line, they can no longer have possession of the ball in the area beyond the half-court line.
If yes, the ball is given to the defense.
Basketball court 1
The ball moves across the court towards the basket as a result of a pass or dribbling. The team with the ball is called a foul. The team without the ball is called the defense.
The defense attempts to steal the ball, contest shots, deflect passes and collect rebounds.
Points
When a team scores a basket, it scores two points and the ball goes to the other team.
If a basket or field goal is made outside the three-point arc, that basket is worth three points. A free throw is worth one point.
Free throws are awarded to a team according to some formats including the number of fouls committed in a half and/or the type of foul committed.
A foul on a shooter always results in him being awarded two or three free throws, depending on where he was when he fired. If he goes over the three-point line, he gets three shots.
Other types of fouls do not result in free throws being awarded until a certain number (called team fouls) have been accumulated during the half.
Once this number is reached, the fouled player is given a 1 to 1 opportunity. If he shoots his first free throw, he may take his second shot. If he misses the first hit, the ball stays alive on the rebound.
Game clock
Each game is divided into sections, and all levels consist of two halves.
In college, each half is twenty minutes long.
In high school and under, the halves are divided into eight (sometimes six) minute quarters. For the pros, the quarterfinals are twelve minutes long.
Between halves a break of several minutes. The intervals between quarters are relatively short.
If the score is tied at the end of the rule, additional periods of varying length are played until a winner emerges.
Basket assignment and hint
Each team is also assigned a basket or goal to defend.
This means that the other basket is their points basket.
Teams change goals during half-time.
The game starts with one player from each team on the center court.
The referee tosses the ball between them. The player who picks up the ball knocks it over to a teammate. This is called tipping.

Fouls and violations
In addition to stealing the ball from an opponent, there are other ways for a team to get the ball.
One such way is to commit a foul or violation by another team.
FULS
Personal fouls: Personal fouls include any form of illegal physical contact.
Hitting
Pushing
Slapping
Holding
Illegal selection/screening - when the attacking player is moving.
Penalties for personal fouls: If a player shoots while being fouled, he receives two free throws. if his throw misses, but only one free throw if his throw hits.
Three free throws are awarded if a player is fouled while shooting at a three-point goal and misses. If a player is fouled while making a three-point shot and he still does it, he is awarded one free throw. Thus, he could score four points in the game.
lbs. If the foul was violated in the absence of a throw, the ball is passed to the team against which the foul was committed. They receive the ball from the nearest side or baseline, outside the playing area, and they have 5 seconds to pass the ball to the court.
One & one. If the fouling team has seven or more fouls in the game, then the player against whom the foul was committed is awarded one free throw. If he makes his first shot, he is given another free throw.
Ten or more fouls. If the fouling team has ten or more fouls, then the fouled player receives two free throws.
Charger . Offensive foul committed when a player pushes or runs over a defender. player. The ball is passed to the team against which the foul was committed.
Lockout . Blocking is illegal personal contact resulting from a defender failing to timely prevent an opponent from hitting the basket.
Hard foul . Strong contact with the enemy. This includes kicks and punches. This type of foul results in free throws plus a possession foul after the free throws.
Intentional foul . When a player comes into physical contact with another player without reasonable effort to steal the ball. This is a verdict for officials.
Technical foul . Technical foul. A player or coach may commit this type of foul. It doesn't involve player contact or the ball, but it's about the "manner" of the game. Foul language, obscenity, obscenity gestures and even arguments can be considered a technical foul, as can technical details regarding filling in a field incorrectly billed or scored during a warm-up.
VIOLATIONS
Walks/travels . To take more than one and a half steps without dribbling is to move. Moving the pivot foot after the dribbling is stopped is movement.
Carry / Palm . When a player dribbles the ball too far away from the ball, or sometimes even under it.
Double guidance . Dribbling with both hands on the ball at the same time or lifting the ball. dribbling and then dribbling again is a double dribble.
Ball holding . Sometimes two or more opposing players can take possession of the ball at the same time. To avoid a prolonged and/or violent scrum, the referee stops the action and passes the ball to one of the players. team or other on a rotational basis.
Goalkeeper . If a defending player interferes with the shot while he is walking towards the basket, while he is climbing towards the basket after touching the backboard, or while he is in a top hat above the hoop, it is a goal and the shot is scored. If it was committed by an attacker, it is a violation and the ball is given to the opposing team for a throw-in.
Backcourt violation . Once the offense has carried the ball over the midcourt line, they cannot return over the line while in possession. If they do, the ball is passed to the other team for an out-of-bounds pass.
Time limits . The player passing the ball out of bounds has five seconds to pass the ball. If he does not, then the ball is passed to the other team. Other time limits include the rule that a player cannot shoot the ball for more than five seconds while carefully guarded and, in some states and levels, time limits for shots requiring a team to attempt a shot within a certain period of time.
Player positions
Center . Centers are usually the tallest players. Usually they are located next to the basket.
Offense - The aim of the center is to open up for the pass and the shot. They are also responsible for blocking defenders, known as rebounds or screenings, to give other players the opportunity to hit the basket and score a goal. Centers are expected rebounds and kickbacks in attack.
Defense - In defense, the main task of the center is to keep opponents from shooting by blocking blows. and runs in a key zone. They are also expected to get a lot of rebounds because they are taller.
Forward . The next highest players will most likely be your forwards. While a striker may be called when playing under the basket, they may also be required to operate on the flanks and in the corner areas.
Offensive - Offensives are responsible for clearing the pass, taking outside throws, scoring goals and rebounding.
Defense - Responsibilities include preventing attacks and rebounds.
Guard . These are potentially your shortest players and should be able to quickly dribble, court and pass. Their job is to get the ball to the court and create offensive plays.
Offense - Dribbling, passing and organizing attacking play are the primary duties of a defender. They also need to be able to drive into the basket and shoot from the perimeter.
Defense - On defense, the guard is responsible for stealing passes, challenging throws, avoiding hoops, and for boxing.

How to inflate a balloon with helium at home
Useful
Balloons have incredible magic to give a festive mood. This is the best decoration or gift to cheer up and create a cheerful atmosphere.
Balloons can be inflated in the "traditional" way. Then the decoration of the holiday will look old-fashioned: hung in incomprehensible compositions on the wall or scattered on the floor.
But you must admit that balls hovering under the ceiling or figures striving upward look much more spectacular?
Helium balloon inflation
Inflating balloons with helium is easier, faster, more practical and more beautiful than the "usual" way. In order for the balloons to rise up, you need to fill them with a gas that is lighter than air. We know everything about inflating helium balloons, and we will tell you how to do it at home.
How to inflate a balloon with helium at home?
For this you will need:
Portable helium tank;
Balloons;
Tapes or threads for tying;
Scissors.
So, let's start inflating the balloons:
Place the balloon on a flat surface so that it is stable.
Cut the ribbons or strings to the length you need to tie the balloons in advance.
Attach the ball to the cylinder valve.
Gradually turn the valve counterclockwise until the balloon is inflated, controlling the air volume.
Close the faucet, quickly remove the balloon and tie it up.
This is how easy and simple this process is. Helium balloons are ready to please the eye from 7 to 14 days!
Homemade way to make a balloon without helium
Not everyone has a helium balloon, but I want to create a festive atmosphere. To make balloons balloons, you can use the following method. For this you will need:
Crumble into a large bowl with the frosting and Skittles, then combine by hand until thoroughly mixed. Roll into 1 ½ inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Freeze for 20 minutes.
Karly’s love for beautiful foods and joy for creating is infectious to all who meet her.
Then, draw circles across each end as shown in the photos. If you make brownie bites instead of cake pops, draw a plus on the top and then curves on each side. It takes a steady hand to do the decorations, but the design is pretty simple. If I can do it, I know you can!
Spray both sides of a cake pop pan with cooking spray (or a mini muffin tin if you are making brownie bites instead).
Now you are ready to decorate!
