Categories     Dessert

Time 3h55m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup whipping cream
1 bag (10 oz) creme de menthe baking chips
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
10 oz vanilla-flavored candy coating (almond bark)
2 drops green food color
Mini foil candy cups (1 1/2 inch), if desired

Steps:

  • In 2-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream over low heat 2 to 3 minutes or until cream is warm. Remove from heat. Add baking chips and chocolate chips; stir until melted and smooth. Cover; refrigerate 1 hour or until firm.
  • Line cookie sheets with waxed paper. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls, dusting hands with powdered sugar or cocoa, if necessary; place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in deep 1-quart saucepan, melt candy coating over low heat, stirring frequently, until smooth. Remove for heat; cool 10 minutes. In small resealable freezer plastic bag, place 1/4 cup melted coating and the green food color; seal bag. Squeeze bag to mix until uniform color; set aside.
  • Using fork, dip 1 truffle at a time into white candy coating to coat. Return to waxed paper-lined cookie sheets. Cut off tiny corner of bag containing green coating. Squeeze bag to drizzle coating over each truffle (if necessary, reheat green coating in microwave on High a few seconds to make coating drizzle). Let truffles stand until coating is set, about 10 minutes, before placing in foil candy cups. Store in refrigerator.

These truffles are the perfect balance of sweet and minty. They're not too sweet, and the mint flavor is really refreshing.
