into 1-1/4 inch ball. To shape, roll mixture in your palms. Place ball on
waxed paper. 3. Place sprinkles in shallow bowl. 4. Roll balls in sprinkles,
place in petit four or candy cases.( if coating mixture won't stick because
truffle has set, roll between your palms until outside is soft. 5. Truffles
can be refrigerated 2-3 days or frozen several weeks. Hint: Truffles are
coated with cocoa, powdered sugar, nuts, sprinkles or cookie crumbs to add
flavor and prevent the truffle from melting in your fingers.

Makes about 24 truffles.
