Easy and Decadent? Bring on the holiday pounds!

I came across this SUPER EASY recipe for truffles the other day.  I'm going to make a couple batches this weekend (in all my spare time) and spread some holiday cheer!  These would be perfect for teachers, the mailman, Santa or even yourself!  Enjoy!

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until well blended. Stir in melted chocolate and vanilla until no streaks remain. Refrigerate for about 1 hour. Shape into 1 inch balls.

Roll truffles in ground walnuts (or any ground nuts), cocoa, coconut, confectioners' sugar, candy sprinkles, etc.

To flavor truffles with liqueurs or other flavorings, omit vanilla. Divide truffle mixture into thirds. Add 1 tablespoon liqueur (almond, coffee, orange) to each mixture; mix well.

Enjoy this last special weekend before Christmas!
