Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Brownie Base by baking your brownie mix in a greased 9x13 inch pan at 350°F until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs, about 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  2. Mix the Truffle Filling by combining the brownie base and room temperature cream cheese in a bowl. Blend until smooth and creamy for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Shape the Truffles by rolling about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into a ball and placing on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for about 30 minutes.
  4. Melt the Chocolate Coating by microwaving the chocolate wafers in a bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth, 1-2 minutes total.
  5. Coat the Truffles by immersing each one in the melted chocolate and tapping off excess. Place back on the parchment sheet with decorative sprinkles if desired.
  6. Set the Chocolate Coating by refrigerating the coated truffles for 15-20 minutes until set. Store in an airtight container.
