Easy Chocolate Truffles

I thought I'd post this recipe for chocolate truffles..........I made them for teacher gifts this year, and they turned out great. They are really easy to make, the only somewhat time consuming part is rolling and coating them. But they are delicious, and worth it if you are a chocolate lover!

Easy Chocolate Truffles(from Kraftfoods.com)

1 pkg. Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened

3 cups powdered sugar

1-1/2 pkg. (12 squares) Baker's Semi-sweet Baking chocolate, melted

1-1/2 tsp. vanilla

Suggested coatings: such as ground walnuts or almonds, unsweetened cocoa, powdered sugar and/or coconut flakes.

1. Beat cream cheese in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until well blended.

2. Add melted chocoalte and vanilla, mix well. Refrigerate 1 hour or until well chilled.

3. Shape into 1 inch balls, roll in walnuts, cocoa, powdered sugar or cocunut. Store in refrigerator.

4. Put the truffles in fluted candy cups for presentation

*You can also omit the vanilla, divide the recipe into thirds, and add a Tbsp. of liquor to each third. We divided the mix in half and did one half with peppermint extract instead, and rolled the truffle in peppermint dust and powdered sugar. These are fun to play around with flavors and coatings to come up with your favorites. Enjoy!

Does any one know what powdered sugar is called in Australia? I don't think I have ever seen it here, so I am assuming it called something different here?

I'm not from Australia but I have heard powdered sugar called both icing sugar and 10X sugar. Do those sound familiar?

      @Jmartes71, Have you tried a naturopathic or holistic doctor? Some posters in the past have commented theirs were more helpful than mainstream doctors.

      @HectorConvector, Have you tried taking 500 mg of the Thiamine Mononitrate that you have left? Thiamine Mononitrate may not be as helpful as other forms of thiamine, but since that's what you have on hand. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even at high doses needed to correct thiamine deficiency. No harm in trying it. Neuroplastic...

      This may seem non-relevant but I thought I'd add it here anyway to see what anyone thinks. Many might dismiss it but that's OK. I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse. I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown...

Neuroplastic changes in the brain may be caused by thiamine deficiency.   These changes can be seen in Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's syndrome, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. I googled "Neuroplastic Sensitization syndrome and thiamine pubmed" and see for yourself what it says.   Try taking 500 mg Thiamine Mononitrate and look for health changes.

I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I know lol)  and supplied it with all the clinical evidence I've had from tests etc.... After hours of "discussing" with it and finding research it "concluded" it's a chronic neuroplastic sensitization syndrome but of course said I should only get a proper diagnosis from a  doctor. When I saw the doctor on 9th February because this got worse he looked through all my medical history and the course of the "condition". I didn't tell him I'd used ChatGPT or mention what I thought it is because I still don't really know until I have a formal diagnosis. He came with the same conclusion as ChatGPT. Just thought it was an interesting co-incidence perhaps. As for myself, I'm not forming any conclusions til I can really know exactly what's happening and why and what stops it. Only then can I truly know.

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse. I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown the medication max dose even though there is nothing physically wrong with my body. A bit earlier I had violent shocking evil burning nerve pain that made me nearly pass out and want to die again, also noticed this seems to be associated with sudden water retention. I've made hardly any pee in nearly 12 hours and despite drinking loads. Mouth is super dry. I am getting the "correct" sort of this when I've finished the current ones, so not long now. Can only get it on the internet here. Then I can say how it might change anything.
