I stumbled across this recipe the other day in a coupon ad and decided I'd try it. I wasn't to keen on it but the 3 other people who had them were in love. Chocolate truffles, made with cream cheese. So if you like rich chocolate and or the richness of cheese cake, then this may be for you.
Chocolate truffles1. The small blocks of cream cheese... halved.
2. 10 squares of semisweet bakers chocolate.
3. sorted sprinkles (if you want)
Directions:
In a double boiler, if you have one, (if not, vigilantly microwave in a bowl, with a little bit of milk. Or make your own double boiler by placing an empty pot inside/on top of a pot with boiling water) melt the chocolate squares. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until creamy and smooth. Slowly add the melted chocolate and mix completely. Put the mixture into the fridge for about 20-30 minutes to let cool. Remove and use teaspoon or melon baller type instrument to portion and shape the chocolate mixture into balls. If you want you can dip the tops of the truffles into sprinkles to add color and texture.

I recommend using mini cupcake/muffin containers to put the individual truffles in.
Share and enjoy... oh yeah and don't forget the best part... licking the beaters! :)
