Ingredients

Scale

Truffle Mixture

  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers (or chocolate cookies)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Coating and Garnish

  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (for rolling)
  • 1/2 cup melted chocolate (for coating, optional)
  • Chopped nuts or sprinkles (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Truffle Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Nutella, crushed graham crackers, powdered sugar, mini chocolate chips if using, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until a consistent dough forms.
  2. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up, making it easier to shape into balls.
  3. Form the Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, shape the chilled mixture into approximately one-inch diameter balls.
  4. Coat the Truffles: Roll each truffle in cocoa powder until fully coated. For a richer taste, dip the truffles in melted chocolate instead. Place dipped truffles on a parchment-lined sheet to set. Optionally, garnish with chopped nuts or colorful sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
  5. Serve: Refrigerate the coated truffles for an additional 15 minutes to let the coating set. Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy these delicious nutty chocolate bites.

Notes

  • Optional mini chocolate chips add little bursts of chocolate texture.
  • For a thicker coating, dip truffles in melted chocolate rather than rolling in cocoa powder.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Allow truffles to come to room temperature before eating for the best flavor experience.
