Ingredients - 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 ounces light cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or rum or almond)
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
Instructions - Melt chocolate chips in a microwavable glass bowl for 1 minute until just melted. Stir with a spatula until smooth.
- Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add melted chocolate and vanilla; mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add cocoa powder and mix until blended. The mixture will be crumbly at first but will come together as a dough.
- Gradually add sugar and beat until the dough is soft and creamy.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Dip and roll balls into shallow bowls of either sifted confectioner's sugar or sifted cocoa powder.
- Place truffles on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Chill for at least an hour.
