Chocolate truffles
Ingredients
- 1 (6-oz.) pkg. semisweet chocolate morsels
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- Optional coatings: cocoa powder, chopped nuts, powdered sugar, flaked
- coconut
Instructions
Place chocolate morsels in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 45 seconds. (The morsels won't look as if they are melting, but they are.) Stir the morsels around with a spoon, leaving a space in the middle. Microwave on High another 30 seconds and stir again until smooth and creamy. If lumps persist, microwave another 15-20 seconds on High, then stir again.
Add peanut butter to melted morsels and stir to blend. Add evaporated milk and blend well. Chill mixture 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Using a tablespoon, scoop mixture and form into balls. Roll in desired coatings. Refrigerate until serving.
Makes about 3 dozen truffles.
