I thought this recipe was fantastic! I made the chocolate in the morning and let it sit in the fridge untill later that night. It worked great and tasted wonderful. I shaped the truffles into mini eggs and coated them in a lot of powdered sugar (you couldn't see any brown) They looked like mini eggs. Everyone loved them.

I've heard from a reliable source that you'll need to freeze the 'gooey' chocolate, then leave it covered on the table (for hygiene), until it is almost the same temperature as the surrounding. Then the problem of gooey chocolate/mess is then solved.

I thought this recipe was pretty easy,except for the stirring. Tasted great and I actually had to make more. Kids loved them and also loved to help roll them in the different coating. I used powdered sugar, cocoa powder, finely chopped nuts, and also had some Heath bits (the best). I just used the basic recipe, but next time will try adding some different flavorings. YUM!!

once again, yummy gooey mess (it refused to set). very delicious, but this recipe seems to make more of a chocolate caramel than anything else. i've coated them and put them in the fridge, but the best use i can think for the recipe right now is as an accompaniment to ice cream, on top of shortcake or in a devils cake. this recipe will not make truffles, but its very yummy anyway.

this is my second christmas using this recipe. i love it. i use soymilk and margarine instead of butter and milk, and they turned out great. i made one batch with baileys and rolled them in cocoa, and another batch with coconut milk then rolled them in coconut. they're always a big hit. :)

I made these truffles with german chocolate, butter, and half and half cream. They were good but a bit too sweet.

I made this for christmas presents and gave a small batch as samples and they were gone in less than an hour. They didi not believe that they were homemade. I skipped the butter, and dipped them in chocolate almond bark for a crispy outside texture awesome i am in the process of making another bathch to serve with my christmas dessert platter.

They tasted very good but were a lot of work. I had trouble shaping them and made a big mess. I don't thing I'll try these again. Sorry.

I felt the same as the other 3-the recipe would not set up and all I had was chocolate goo-then I added a cup of sifted powdered sugar and put it in the refrigerator for an hour (this was after two hours sitting on the counter in a covered bowl. When I started to roll the balls it wasn't too bad. I was able to scoop out the balls put them in the fridge for a short while, then I rolled them in the goodies. They were a hit at the party. I think the next time I would use about 2/3 the amount of unsalted butter and a cup of the powdered sugar. They really were delicious.

ok, so i did EXACTLY what the recipe said, but it didn't firm up... either i used the wrong kind of shortening or something, but all i have is a yummy gooey mess, that would be perfect inside of a cake! it doesn't firm up right... sorry.
