Decadent, fudgy, and incredibly easy, these 3-Ingredient Brownie Truffles are the ultimate shortcut to a gourmet dessert. By combining prepared brownies with tangy cream cheese and a crisp chocolate shell, you create a treat that tastes like it came from a high-end bakery.

Ingredients

Brownie mix (18 oz box) – 1 unit

Cream cheese (brick-style, softened) – 8 ounces

Chocolate melting wafers – 3 cups

Assorted sprinkles – for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the brownies in a 9×13 inch pan according to the package directions. Allow the brownies to cool completely.

Scoop out the baked brownies into a large bowl leaving the firmer edges behind.

Add the cream cheese to the brownies and beat with a hand or stand mixer until well combined and no lumps of cream cheese remain.

Roll the brownie mixture into 1 tablespoon sized balls and arrange them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze for 30 minutes or until solid.

Once the truffles are frozen, melt the chocolate wafers in a microwave safe bowl in 20 second increments until smooth.

Use a fork to dip the frozen truffles in the chocolate to coat them. Gently tap the fork to shake off the excess chocolate before returning to the baking sheet. Immediately top with sprinkles.

Place the truffles in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to set.

Notes

• Use full-fat brick cream cheese for the best structure; tub cream cheese is too soft.

• Leaving the crispy brownie edges out ensures a perfectly smooth truffle interior.

• If the chocolate thickens while dipping, reheat it for 10 seconds.

• Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 2 months.
