Easy Baileys Truffles

Pvt Amys Mom's Note:

This is an easy to make and yummy truffle. You can add different flavorings to make them uniquely yours! Great for gift giving - Melt in your mouth!! My kids and I do Christmas baskets full of nothing but homemade goodies - this is one of the favorites! (My cooking time is actual time "assembling" the truffles) Servings are approx - depends on how many you give to each person and how many you eat while making them :-) I usually get about 50 from each batch.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 50

4. Blend well, mixture may start to thicken.
5. Chill in refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
6. Use spoon or melon baller to scoop mixture in to hand.
7. For dipping chocolate, I buy white chocolate bark but you can use white chocolate chips, candy melts, or just roll them in coconut, cocoa powder, mini choc chips, sprinkles, etc.
8. Melt the bark or white chocolate according to pkg instructions.
9. Dip each ball in white chocolate to coat.
10. We drizzle a tiny"design" of dark chocolate over the top of the truffles to make them pretty.

I made these at Christmas for the family and they were devoured! They are SO good and easy to make. I made Baileys and I also made some with peppermint as the extract for chocolate mint and used chocolate as the dip and sprinkled the top w/ crushed peppermints. SO GOOD!!!
