  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  5. Fry the cake balls in batches for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crisp, turning occasionally.
  6. Remove the fried bites, let excess oil drip off, then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture while still warm.
  7. Serve on a platter with a bowl of warm chocolate sauce for dipping.
