I really liked the texture of these truffles. I would do without the cocoa next time. It was a bit strong for my taste. I will try coating them in dark chocolate

This is a wonderful recipe! I doubled the recipe and it was part of my "goodie" can Christmas treats to friends. Everyone loved these truffles and was the most asked for recipe in all of my Christmas "goodie" cans. This ones a keeper!
