Source of Recipe


From "Holidays from the Heart" (QFC, 2008)



List of Ingredients



• 1 cup heavy cream
  
• ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
  
• 24 ounces chocolate morsels, melted
  
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  
• ¼ cup powdered sugar
  
• ¼ cup cocoa powder
  
• ½ cup peanuts, finely ground
  






Instructions



1. Heat cream with peanut butter in a saucepan. Whisk together as peanut butter melts. Meanwhile, melt chocolate in the top of a double boiler over barely simmering water.
   
   
2. Combine peanut butter mixture with melted chocolate. Add vanilla. Place in refrigerator for 10 minutes. Mix powdered sugar and cocoa together.
   
   
3. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Using a melon baller, place rounded small portions onto waxed paper, spacing so that they don't touch. Roll truffle in cocoa-powdered sugar mixture or ground peanuts.
