Ingredients Needed
Betty Crocker’s Boxed Brownie Mix (550g)
8oz Cream Cheese, softened
1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
1 Cup Pink Candy Melts
1 Cup White Candy Melts
3 Tbs Coconut Oil
Sprinkles of Choice
How To Make This Recipe
First, prepare the brownies according to the package instructions. Every package is different, but most brownie mixes call for eggs, oil and water or something of that sort. Once the brownies are baked, allow them to cool for at least 30 minutes.
Once the brownies are cooled, add them to a mixing bowl with 8oz of cream cheese. Use clean hands to incorporate the cream cheese and brownie together. You know the truffle dough is mixed well when the dough resembles play-dough texture.
Form the brownie mixture into 1-2 tablespoon balls by rolling the truffle dough in between both of your palms. Set aside on a baking tray lined with parchment paper for now.
Melt milk chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, repeat this step with the candy melts as well. You can use white candy melts, pink, red or whatever you have on hand or prefer. Or you could just use melted chocolate chips. The coconut oil will help melt the chocolate. Microwave the chocolate chips in 30 second intervals until the chocolate is completely melted, and “runny”.
Dip each ball into the melted chocolate (and/or coloured candy melts). Use a fork to allow the extra chocolate to drip off and then, place the balls on a baking tray for now.
While the chocolate is still wet on the truffle, sprinkle each ball with sprinkles. Get creative and decorate each truffle to your own liking.
Once each truffle has been dipped in chocolate and decorated with sprinkles, place the tray of truffles in the fridge until they are set (30 minutes). Once the chocolate is set and harden they are ready to eat. These truffles will last up to 6 days in the fridge in an airtight container. Gift these to your secret admirer, valentine, best friends, or anyone and enjoy! 🙂

Notes + Tips
- Make sure to cool the brownie completely before adding the cream cheese. The cooling period is the longest period between each step. Make sure to also cool the truffles in the fridge before serving so they can set up properly.
- These decadent truffles are super CUSTOMIZABLE! I used pink and white candy melts and milk chocolate chips for the coating of the truffles. I topped each truffle with different valentines sprinkles. Get creative and add different colours or sprinkles or try adding multiple candy melt colours to each truffle, giving them a marble affect. That is why I love these brownie truffles because you can really create them your own style!
- Brownie truffles should be kept in the fridge since they are made with cream cheese. They will last up to 6 days in the fridge; so you can make them in advance before Valentine’s Day!
