Well, not really addictive, I can stop anytime I want to... Melt in your mouth chocolate truffles that are almost too good to eat. Next time I am going to experiment with a little instant coffee dissolved in hot water for a mocha flavor.

Ingredients

12 ounces milk chocolate
⅓ cup light cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons shortening

Directions

Cover a baking sheet with waxed paper, and spray paper with nonstick cooking spray.

Spoon tablespoon-sized scoops of the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Refrigerate until well chilled, about 30 minutes.

Roll each piece of chilled chocolate into a ball. Use a spoon to dip chocolate balls into the melted chocolate chip mixture. Return truffles to baking sheet, and chill until firm.

Tips

Cook's Note:

I like to use a creamy milk chocolate such as Dove(R) or Cadbury Dairy Milk(R) in these tasty truffles.
