Instructions
- Start by whipping your cream cheese with a hand mixer or a stand mixer.
- Take 8 of the chocolate squares and melt them in a microwave safe measuring glass in the microwave.
- If you want to use flavoring, you can now add 1 or two teaspoons of mint,almond or rum, or if you are so inclined you can add a 1/4 cup of your favorite liqueur,
- Pour the melted chocolate into the cream cheese mixture in the bowl, and proceed to whip them together thoroughly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about an hour, until it’s firm enough to handle.
- Once the mixture has firmed up in the refrigerator, take about 2 teaspoons and roll it into a ball, placing on trays covered with wax paper.
- Once those are rolled, it is time to dip! Melt the remaining chocolate squares and then dip each into the chocolate, using a fork. Once the chocolate has dripped off to an acceptable coating, place back on the cookie sheets.
- Then you can garnish with whatever your heart desires; I have done little stars sprinkled on, you can do nuts or coconut or whatever you can think of. This year I used a tip and an icing bag and did white chocolate on top, a very delicious contrast.
- Let the outside of the truffles harden. Store in a closed container with layers of parchment or waxed paper between the layers of truffles to keep them from sticking together.
