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?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the USA only wheat-based breads are fortified with certain vitamins, but not gluten-free breads, thus we typically encourage celiacs to take multivitamin supplements.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste. I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get a non-Coeliac to try this! I don't want anyone here to get glutened...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting. It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I...
