Truffles of a Party!!!

For my cousin's (Malee's) birthday I decided to make her Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes.  I was excited to share the cupcakes with Malee and her friends. The cupcakes did not turn out the way I wanted.  I made cupcakes before, but this time I used the ice cream scoop to make the cupcake portion in size. This caused the cupcakes not to rise to the height I wanted. Instead of throwing it away I decided to make TRUFFLES!!! For cupcakes/truffles: 1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry gelatin 1 cup mashed fresh strawberries (1 and 1/2 c. whole=1 c. mashed) 1 cup vegetable oil 1/3 cup buttermilk 4 eggs For the lemon cream cheese frosting 1 tub Whipped Cream Cheese frosting 1 -2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice For chocolate coating 1lb dark or white chocolate Prepare and bake the cupcakes according to the directions of the package for a 9x13 cake. Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely. Crumble the cake into a large bowl and
