EASY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES AKA: COOL WHIP CANDY



Easy Chocolate Truffles Aka: Cool Whip Candy image

A friend of ours dropped by one day with a few of these to share. He got the recipe from his grandmother. There are very few recipes I make using Cool Whip but this is now one of them. I looked up Cool Whip Candy here on Zaar & there are a couple others posted but they use different cookies and Hershey candy bars. I liked that this recipe uses chocolate chips, as they melt faster & I could buy a brand that I favor over Hershey. We store the truffles in a large resealable bag in the freezer & just grab one or two whenever we have a bit of a sweet tooth. Aside from some heavy duty stirring this recipe is very kid friendly. Cook time is chill time.

Time 2h

Yield 40 truffles, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 (12 ounce) bags milk chocolate chips (12 oz each, not semi-sweet)
1 (16 ounce) container Cool Whip, Thawed (store brands & Lite options don't work)
1 (7 1/4 ounce) package graham crackers, crushed

Steps:

  • In large microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips slowly. About 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each increment until the chips are melted.
  • Slowly start folding in the thawed Cool Whip & then continue to stir until well incorporated. (If Cool Whip is not well thawed the chocolate will freeze into tiny bits, ending with texture that resembles a rice krispie treat when eaten. The optimal outcome is to have a center that is light & fluffy like a 3 Musketeers candy bar.) Either way, they are very good.
  • Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper or parchment.
  • Roll a Tablespoon sized amount in your fingers or use a small (1-1/2 inch)cookie scoop and form into balls. Set aside on prepared cookie sheet. Repeat until the mixture is used up.
  • Put cookie sheet with truffle centers into freezer for about 20 minutes (or longer to harden a bit).
  • When ready to roll, remove centers from freezer & let sit on counter for just a few minutes.
  • Put crushed graham crackers into a shallow bowl, roll each ball to cover and then place back on cookie sheet.
  • When finished, put the cookie sheet back in freezer for an hour or two.
  • Store covered in refrigerator or for long-term storage put the truffles into a large resealable bag & store in the freezer.
