How was everyones 4th? Did you all have fun, food, & Family? We sure did and not to mention we had some awesome fireworks! I did break down and make Miss A a shirt, I will add a little tutorial for you soon, here in Utah we still have the 24th to celebrate too! I thought I would share an easy recipe that reaps LOT & Lots of Praise! Besides it is super easy and cheap!
Do you have a love for the truffles but they all seem like a lot of work? Well these are defiantly the ones for you. They take little time and you only need 2 ingredients! I found these when looking for fun treats for a cookie exchange I went to a while back. They are so easy and yummy. I think just the name Truffles People assume you went to lots of work ;)
Items Needed:
- 1 8oz pack of Cream cheese
- Chocolate (1 pkg of almond bark or 2 1/2 boxes of melting chocolate)
Start with whipping your cream cheese, while that is whipping melt half of your chocolate. Set the other half aside that is what you will coat your truffles with. I melted my Chocolate in the microwave 2 minutes and stirred and did 30 second intervals until it was all melted. Add the melted chocolate to your cream cheese and mix well

AT this point you can go onto the next step and keep it 2 Ingredients or I like to try my luck and test different combos. I have added some mint extract to make them mint truffles, I have also whipped in a 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter (my husband and his work favorite!). If you want 2 types simply split the mix here and add different flavors (I am going to try orange next!). Next once you decide what flavor you would like and it is mixed in scoop out your mix onto wax paper. I use a mini scoop so they stay similar in size. you can also use a spoon and drop them onto wax paper.

Refrigerate the balls for about 1 hr until firm enough to hold their shape in melted chocolate. I usually shape them into better ball shapes before I dip them. Melt your other half of chocolate, I added a little shortening because a very wise woman (Tara’s Mom!) told me a little shortening in your melted chocolate gives it a shinny coat!

Dip then decorate! You can add sprinkles to pretty them up, I added some melted peanut butter to the peanut butter ones. You can also roll them in powdered sugar and coco powder if you don't want to dip them!

Stand back and enjoy the praise!
you said you added pb drizzle to the pb ones. how did you make peanut butter ones? did you add pb to the middle truffle?
ReplyDeleteIt says that she whipped in 1/2 cup peanut butter after blending the cream cheese and melted chocolate. I hope this helps.

ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thinking about making some of these for x-mas gifts. I'm in the process of making my first batch right now - using peanut butter candy melts in the middle and dark choc for the shell :)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great recipe, I can't wait try it. How do you plan to make the truffles orange flavored?
ReplyDeleteBrilliant recipy. I'll save this for when I need to impress in the future. I tried adding the peel and juice of two limes to the truffle bit, and if you're looking for new flavours, I'd reccommend it!
ReplyDeletehow much chocolate exactly? How big are these boxes?
ReplyDeleteI'm making some of these now, and having a lot of fun! I used 8oz of semi-sweet baking chocolate. The one I've tried so far was pretty good, but I think I could have used more chocolate.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I want to let you know, that there should not be an apostrophe in "moms." You just want the plural of mom, with no apostrophe.
I can't wait to try this!
ReplyDeleteWhat is the point to almost all of these comments?? Has anyone made them? Are they any good or are they just easy????
