These brownie truffles are made from scratch and are one of our favorite vacation treats! Easy to do and completely addicted!
Recently, my social media feed is flooded with “Oreo” truffles. Don’t get me wrong, the Oreo truffles are pretty good … but I’ll tell you a little secret. There is nothing in this homemade brownie truffle! A simple, homemade, sticky, fuzzy brownie rolled and soaked in chocolate! Those little devils were dangerous to my waistline.
You start with a simple homemade brownie recipe. I don’t decide if I would choose a box brownie mix instead.
After baking, crush the brownie with a fork while it is still warm. Then spoon out a handful of brownies and roll them tightly into balls. Freeze them for 30 minutes. When it’s hard and cold, it’s easy to handle and can be dipped in chocolate. When the brownie is almost set in the freezer, melt the chocolate.
Be sure to use high-quality chocolate to melt. I often use the Baker brand Semi-Sweet Chocolate Square.
If you only have chocolate chips, I suggest adding a few tablespoons of butter to help them melt.
Soak the brownie balls in the melted chocolate. Sprinkle with chocolate, or if you want to sweeten it.
I usually give it as a Christmas present to my neighbors, but to be honest, I often don’t come out of my house! Oops!
