Tasty Planner - Recipe - Velvety Chocolate Truffles by Ladyjen24

Instructions

Coarsely chop chocolate squares. Place chopped chocolate, chocolate morsals and 1/2 the whipped topping into a bowl. Microwave, uncovered on high 1 1/2-2 minutes or until chocolate is melted and smooth, stirring after each 20 second interval. Fold in the remaining whipped topping and vanilla.

Spread truffle mixture onto a cutting board. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm enough to scoop. Do not allow chocolate to harden too long or the coatings will not adhere well to the truffles.)

Using a large spoon, scoop truffle mixture and roll the truffle mixture into a small ball with your hands (gloves can be used in order to keep your hands clean).

(Optional)
Place truffles onto small plates containing assorted coatings if desired (unsweetened cocoa powder, toasted chopped almonds, grated chocolate or toasted coconut are always good). Roll the truffles in the toppings until coated.

**For easier scooping, dip scoop into hot water after every few truffles and tap on paper towels to remove excess water.
