Ingredients

  • 1 box Family Size Brownie Mix plus ingredients called for in brownie mix; eggs, oil, water
  • 1/3 to 1/2 16. oz can cream cheese frosting, or frosting of choice Adjust quantity to your sweet tooth.
  • 16 oz. pkg. CandyQuik or Almond Bark
  • Decorative Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Prepare and bake brownie mix as directed on box; cool completely.
  • Crumble brownies into a large bowl (if the edges are hard leave those out). Add frosting and mix thoroughly.
  • Roll mixture into 1” sized balls. Chill approximately 1-2 hours in the refrigerator (or in freezer 30 – 45 minutes if in a hurry) until firm.
  • Melt CandyQuik according to directions on package. May substitute candy melts or chocolate chips if desired.
  • Place truffle ball on a fork and dip into melted candy coating; spoon more candy coating on top.
  • Once the ball is covered tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to remove excess and place on wax paper to set.
  • Add decorative sprinkles while coating is still warm, before coating is set.

Notes

  • Fudge-style brownies tend to roll in a ball easier than cake-style so you can use less frosting so truffles aren't overly sweet.
  • If brownie truffles start to get sticky when dipping, place the remaining truffles in the refrigerator or freezer for an additional 20-30 minutes.
  • Store in airtight container until ready to gift or serve.
