Step-by-Step Guide to the Best Brownie Truffles

Tools You’ll Need

• Mixing bowl
• Baking pan
• Spatula
• Microwave
• Oven
• Freezer
• Baking sheet
• Parchment paper

Step 1: Preparation for the Brownie Truffles

• 18.2 ounces boxed brownie mix, 1 box (Duncan Hines dark chocolate fudge brownie mix)
• ⅓ cup vegetable oil, or canola oil
• 2 large eggs
• ⅓ cup water
• ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
• 4 ounces block-style cream cheese, softened
• 10 ounces milk chocolate melting wafers
• 10 ounces dark chocolate melting wafers
• 1 cup white chocolate chips

Step 2: Cooking the Brownie Truffles

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F and spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a medium bowl, stir the brownie mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and water until just combined. Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan, about 1 hour.

Once cooled, use your hands to crumble the brownies in the pan thoroughly. Add the peanut butter and cream cheese to the crumbled brownies, mixing well until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and form the mixture into 1 to 1½-inch balls, placing them evenly spaced on the sheet. Freeze the balls for 1 hour.

Step 3: Assembling and Finishing

Melt the milk chocolate and dark chocolate melting wafers together in a small bowl in the microwave for 1½-2 minutes, stirring every 15 seconds until smooth. Using a fork, dip the frozen brownie balls into the melted chocolate, tapping off any excess. Gently use a toothpick to slide the truffle off the fork and back onto the baking sheet to set.

Once the chocolate coating has hardened, melt the white chocolate in the microwave, stirring every 15 seconds until it’s silky. Drizzle this over the truffles and allow them to cool completely for another 10 minutes before serving.

Tips for the Best Brownie Truffles Every Time

• Use a good quality Chocolate Shop chocolate for melting, ensuring a smooth and shiny finish on your truffles.
• Chill the brownie balls well before dipping to keep them firm and make the coating process easier.
• If the chocolate starts to thicken while dipping, microwave for a few seconds to re-melt and maintain smoothness.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Don’t over-mix the brownie batter. Stir just until the ingredients are combined to ensure a moist and tender texture.
• Avoid using low-quality chocolate; the taste and texture won’t deliver the same rich results.
• Be cautious not to over-heat the chocolate, as this can cause it to seize.

Easy Ways to Customize Your Dish

• Try adding chopped nuts or coconut flakes to the mixture before forming the truffles.
• Top with flakes of sea salt for a Salted Caramel Brownies effect.
• Drizzle with colorful candy melts for Easy Christmas Goodies that are visually stunning.
