These were great. A huge hit with my family. I melted a 1lb. dark chocolate Hershey bar to dip the truffles in - a little time-consuming, but worth the effort. I also added about 1 Tbsp. whipping cream to the recipe to make the "inside" creamier and replaced the vanilla with raspberry extract. They turned out terrific!

More like chocolate candy than chocolate. Way to sweet for my taste. At least the candies that it made held their shape, but IMHO it wasn't worth the work.

These are delicious. Instead of using a spoon, I put toothpicks in them and it works a lot better for dipping and eating.

These were so yummy! My three year old daughter and I made these for my husband for Father's Day. She loved rolling them in our toppings. I used flake coconut, cocoa, graham crackers, and crushed pecans. He loved them! The coconut and pecan truffles were his favorite. I will be making these again.

This recipe was perfect. the cream cheese made it real fast to harden and added a little tang to the chocolate. for the toppings I used cocoa(of course), ground pecans, unsweetened coconut flakes and ground candied orange peel.

Rich and fun to make. We rolled the truffles in rainbow sprinkles, coconut, nuts, and mini chocolate chips. Time consuming to make...so plan on making a morning or afternoon of this recipe!
