I haven't tried these yet, but I think I might for the holidays. Thought I'd post, for anyone looking for something "easy". I think this is from Better Homes mag. and this recipe won in the "Holiday Candies " category.
Ginger Chocolate Truffles 1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened 4 cups sifted powdered sugar 1 tsp. ground ginger 5 oz. unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled 1 cup toasted finely chopped or ground almonds, chocolated sprinkles or cocoa powder Place cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese 30 seconds. Slowly add sugar and ginger. Beat till smooth. Add melted chocolate; beat till combined. Chill about 1 hour or till easy easy to handle. Shape the chilled mixture into 1--inch balls; roll in almonds, chocolate sprinkles, or cocoa powder.
