Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Base
- 1 (18 ounce) box of brownie mix + ingredients listed on box
- 8 ounces full-fat, brick-style cream cheese, room temperature
Coating & Decoration
- 3 cups chocolate melting wafers
- Sprinkles for decorating
Instructions
- Prepare Brownies: Preheat your oven and prepare the brownies in a 9×13 inch pan according to the package directions. Once baked, allow the brownies to cool completely to ensure easy handling.
- Crumble and Mix: Scoop out the soft center of the baked brownies into a large bowl, leaving the firmer edges behind. Add the cream cheese and beat with a hand or stand mixer until fully combined and smooth with no cream cheese lumps.
- Shape Truffles: Roll the brownie and cream cheese mixture into 1 tablespoon sized balls. Arrange them spaced apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze the balls for 30 minutes or until firm to make dipping easier.
- Melt Chocolate: Once truffles are frozen, melt the chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second increments and stirring until smooth.
- Coat Truffles: Using a fork, dip each frozen truffle into the melted chocolate to fully coat it. Gently tap the fork to remove excess chocolate before placing the truffles back on the baking sheet. Immediately add sprinkles on top before the chocolate sets.
- Set Coating: Place the coated truffles in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to harden completely. Once set, the truffles are ready to serve.
Notes
- For best results, use full-fat cream cheese at room temperature to ensure smooth mixing.
- Ensure brownies are fully cooled before mixing to avoid melting the cream cheese.
- Chilling the truffles before dipping helps the chocolate coating set quickly and neatly.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- You can substitute sprinkles with chopped nuts or shredded coconut for variety.
