This Mint Truffles recipe is so simple – you won’t believe it! I have a sweet tooth and for that reason I like to always have a homemade sweet treat on hand to tackle sugar cravings. I make a batch of these every few weeks and I find that one of them is just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth.
To make this recipe, you need just 4 ingredients – chocolate chips, whipped topping, peppermint extract and cocoa powder to dust the truffles. I add whipped topping and peppermint extract to melted chocolate and beat well. I freeze the mixture to make it easier to shape into truffle balls. I roll these in cocoa powder and keep them in a jar in the refrigerator.
To make Mint Truffles, you will need the following ingredients:
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave or over a pot of simmering water. Allow the melted chocolate cool to lukewarm.
Add the whipped topping and peppermint extract to the melted chocolate and beat well to combine.
Place the chocolate truffle mix in the freezer and leave for about 15 minutes until the mixture is firm enough to form balls.
Shape the chocolate mixture into 1 inch truffles.
Roll each truffle in cocoa powder to coat.
Store these truffles in the refrigerator and serve with coffee or tea.
