 Nutella Truffles

Here's a simple and delicious recipe for Nutella truffles:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of Nutella
• 3 cups of crushed graham crackers or digestive biscuits
• 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup of heavy cream
• 8 oz of semisweet or dark chocolate (for coating)
• Finely chopped hazelnuts or sprinkles (optional, for coating)

Instructions:

1. Mix Ingredients:

   • In a large bowl, combine the Nutella, crushed graham crackers or digestive biscuits, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream.
   • Mix until well combined and a dough-like consistency forms. You can use your hands to ensure everything is well mixed.

2. Form Truffles:

   • Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll it into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
   • Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

3. Chill:

   • Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill the truffles for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

4. Melt Chocolate:

   • While the truffles are chilling, melt the semisweet or dark chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.

5. Coat Truffles:

   • Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated.
   • Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

6. Optional Coating:

   • If desired, sprinkle the truffles with finely chopped hazelnuts or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.

7. Set:

   • Allow the chocolate coating to set. You can speed up this process by placing the truffles back in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.

8. Serve:

   • Once the chocolate is fully set, your Nutella truffles are ready to enjoy!

Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy these rich and decadent treats!
