Default Easy Truffles

Easy Truffles

1-12 oz bag semisweet chocolate chips
1-8 oz cream cheese -- : softened
3 c powdered sugar
1 tsp instant coffee granules
1 tsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 c sweet ground chocolate or : unsweet cocoa (your preference)

In a large microwaveable bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, on High setting, stirring thoroughly every 30 seconds; set aside. With an electric mixer on Medium setting, beat the fat-free cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, beating until well blended. Dissolve the instant coffee in the non-fat milk; stir it into the cream cheese mixture. Add the vanilla and melted chocolate. Refrigerate about 15 minutes. Shape into 1” balls. Sift the sweet ground chocolate over truffle balls. Store in refrigerator. Yield: 48 truffles
