Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box brownie mix (prepared and cooled)
- 1 cup (240 ml) chocolate chips (melted, for coating)
- Optional toppings: crushed nuts
- Optional toppings: sprinkles
- Optional toppings: cocoa powder (for rolling)
Instructions
- Prepare brownies following package directions, allowing them to cool completely to room temperature.
- Pulverize the cooled brownies in a mixing bowl until achieving a fine, uniform crumb texture.
- Carefully form the crumbled brownies into compact, bite-sized spheres approximately 1 inch in diameter.
- Arrange the brownie balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in short 30-second bursts and stirring between intervals until completely smooth and glossy.
- Submerge each brownie ball into the melted chocolate, using a fork to ensure thorough and even coating.
- Gently tap the fork to remove excess chocolate, then return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined sheet.
- Optionally sprinkle decorative toppings like crushed nuts, sprinkles, or cocoa powder over the wet chocolate coating.
- Allow truffles to set at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, or expedite the process by refrigerating for 15 minutes.
- Transfer the completed truffles to an airtight container, where they can be stored for up to one week in a cool environment.
Notes
- Ensure brownies are completely cooled to prevent chocolate coating from melting and maintain truffle structure.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform-sized truffles, creating consistent and professional-looking results.
- For gluten-free version, select gluten-free brownie mix or use almond flour-based brownie recipe.
- Try different chocolate coatings like white chocolate, dark chocolate, or milk chocolate for varied flavor profiles.
