Chocolate Truffles Recipe
This Chocolate Truffles recipe blends semi-sweet chocolate chips with creamy peanut butter and cool whip to create smooth, rich truffles. After melting and mixing the ingredients, the chilled mixture is formed into balls and coated with toppings like powdered sugar, coconut, or nuts for added texture. The chilled nature of the truffles keeps them firm and makes them ideal for serving as small dessert bites or party treats.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup peanut butter creamy
- 8 ounces Cool Whip left out to room temperature
- toppings, as desired
Instructions
- Pour the chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl, then fill a mug half full of water and place both the bowl and mug at opposite ends of the microwave. Stop and stir the chocolate chips every 30 seconds until completely melted.
- Add the peanut butter and mix well. Then thoroughly mix in the cool whip.
- Refrigerate for at least two hours until your chocolate mixture becomes firm enough to handle. Roll the mixture into balls (about the size of a rounded tablespoon).
- Then roll the balls into powdered sugar, coconut, or nuts, or dip in chocolate. Return the balls to the fridge. They taste the best if they stay refrigerated.
