Simply Sensational Truffles


So, a couple of you want to make this recipe for the holiday coming up, as well as I do. I have never made these before so I dont have pictures (besides this one I stole) and I dont have an opinion of them yet since I havent made them. But, they do sound evil. Too evil. Evil meaning...cant stay away from them.

Here is the recipe. Taken from Kraft Foods.

Prep Time:
15 minTotal Time:
1 hr 15 minMakes:
18 servings, 2 truffles each


2-1/2 pkg. (20 squares) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate, divided
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
decorations: chopped PLANTERS COCKTAIL Peanuts, multi-colored sprinkles

MELT 8 chocolate squares. Beat cream cheese with mixer until creamy. Blend in melted chocolate. Refrigerate until firm.

SHAPE into 36 balls. Place on waxed paper-covered baking sheet.

MELT remaining chocolate. Use fork to dip truffles; return to baking sheet. Decorate, then refrigerate 1 hour.

Sprinkle truffles with crushed peppermint candies in addition to, or instead of, the chopped peanuts and colored sprinkles


Hmmm, now that I've gotten to see this picture and read the recipe AGAIN, maybe I will make them in the next few days and let you all know how they turn out.

Thin Mint recipe coming soon! These, I HAVE made before!
