TRUFFLES
Steps:
- Put the chopped chocolate in a large bowl and set aside.
- Add the heavy cream to a small pot over medium heat and cover with a lid. Remove from the heat just before the cream comes to a boil. Pour the cream over the chocolate, cover the bowl with aluminum foil or a lid and let it sit 5 minutes. Remove the cover and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir in the brown rice syrup and a healthy pinch of Himalayan pink salt. Let it sit and come to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap touching the surface of the ganache and place in the refrigerator to set for 1 hour.
- Scoop tablespoon-size portions of the ganache onto a parchment-lined plate. When filled, place the plate in the freezer for 20 minutes and continue with the remaining ganache.
- Remove the chilled ganache from the freezer; use your hands to roll the portions into smooth balls, then roll in your favorite spice or nut combination.

SIMPLY SENSATIONAL TRUFFLES
I found this great little pamphlet at the grocery store with some delicious recipes. It is a JELL-O, Cool Whip, Nilla Wafers, Philadelphia Cream Cheese, and Bakers Chocolate Squares book of recipes. This is one of them that I plan on trying this week. Sounds delicious. I may try and roll the truffles in the chopped nuts that you buy in the ice cream topping section. This recipe is using Baker's Squares and Philadelphia Cream Cheese. 10 minutes preparation time does not include refrigeration time.

EASY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES AKA: COOL WHIP CANDY
A friend of ours dropped by one day with a few of these to share. He got the recipe from his grandmother. There are very few recipes I make using Cool Whip but this is now one of them. I looked up Cool Whip Candy here on Zaar & there are a couple others posted but they use different cookies and Hershey candy bars. I liked that this recipe uses chocolate chips, as they melt faster & I could buy a brand that I favor over Hershey. We store the truffles in a large resealable bag in the freezer & just grab one or two whenever we have a bit of a sweet tooth. Aside from some heavy duty stirring this recipe is very kid friendly. Cook time is chill time.

Steps:
- In large microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips slowly. About 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each increment until the chips are melted.
- Slowly start folding in the thawed Cool Whip & then continue to stir until well incorporated. (If Cool Whip is not well thawed the chocolate will freeze into tiny bits, ending with texture that resembles a rice krispie treat when eaten. The optimal outcome is to have a center that is light & fluffy like a 3 Musketeers candy bar.) Either way, they are very good.
- Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper or parchment.
- Roll a Tablespoon sized amount in your fingers or use a small (1-1/2 inch)cookie scoop and form into balls. Set aside on prepared cookie sheet. Repeat until the mixture is used up.
- Put cookie sheet with truffle centers into freezer for about 20 minutes (or longer to harden a bit).
- When ready to roll, remove centers from freezer & let sit on counter for just a few minutes.
- Put crushed graham crackers into a shallow bowl, roll each ball to cover and then place back on cookie sheet.
- When finished, put the cookie sheet back in freezer for an hour or two.
- Store covered in refrigerator or for long-term storage put the truffles into a large resealable bag & store in the freezer.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will make a big difference in the final product. Use a good-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Keep your ingredients cold: Cold cream and chocolate will help the truffles set up properly. If your ingredients are too warm, the truffles will be soft and runny.
- Work quickly: Truffles are best when they are made fresh. Once you have dipped the truffles in chocolate, place them in the refrigerator to set up. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to work with the chocolate.
- Be creative with your toppings: You can use a variety of toppings to decorate your truffles. Some popular options include cocoa powder, chopped nuts, sprinkles, or even edible glitter.
Conclusion:
Truffles are a delicious and elegant treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for special occasions or as a simple dessert. With a little practice, you can make delicious truffles at home. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these recipes a try!
