A Recipe for Adrielle
Easy Chocolate Truffles
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
3 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 packages (12 ounces) baker's semi-sweet chocolate, melted chocolate chips may be used but I prefer the bars of chocolate, it mostly depends on what you have handy at the time and how much you want to make.
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
ground nuts, unsweetened cocoa or coconut, toasted
BEAT cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until well blended. Add melted chocolate and vanila; mix well. Refrigerate about 1 hour. Shape into 1-inch balls. Roll in nuts, cocoa or coconut. Store in refrigerator.
PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES
CHILL TIME: 1 HOUR
Variation: to flavor truffles with liqueurs, omit vanilla. Divided truffle mixture into thirds. Add 1 tablespoon liqueur (almond, coffee or orange) to each third mixture; mix well. You can also use mint extract but you will only need about 1/2 teaspoon for each third that you flavor this way.
