Instructions

  1. chop the cookies with a food processor. It's not necessary to reduce them to a powder, but they should still have a fine grain.
  2. Put the chopped cookies in a bowl and add the other ingredients. First the sugar then the cocoa and mix.
  3. Add the mascarpone cheese.
  4. Mix all the ingredients very well. The dough will be a little difficult to mix with a spoon. You can also knead with your hands if you prefer.
  5. Finally, if you like, add the rum and finish mixing very well. The rum is optional. If you don't like the alcoholic aftertaste or you are making the mascarpone and chocolate truffles for children, then don't add it.
  6. Place the bowl with the dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes covered with plastic wrap and let it cool.
  7. After this time, take the dough and form small balls with your hands. If the dough sticks a bit, moisten your hands slightly. The balls should be as uniform as possible. About 20/25 grams each (0.7/0.9 ounces). To be more sure, you can use a scale.

DECORATE

  1. Roll the chocolate mascarpone truffles into the sprinkles and coat them. Arrange the truffles in the mini cupcake liners.
  2. We recommend leaving the treats in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
