These easy and decadent brownie truffles are rich, fudgy, bite-sized treats made from crumbled brownies, mixed with cream cheese, and dipped in smooth, melted chocolate.
Roughly chop the brownies and add them to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Break them up on low speed, then add in the cream cheese and mix again until combined and the brownies form a mass in the bowl.
1 batch of brownies, 4 oz cream cheese
Use a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the batter and roll in between your hands until a smooth ball forms. Add them to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Alternatively pat the brownie mixture into a brick on a piece of parchment paper and use a cookie cutter to cut out specific shapes.
Freeze the shaped truffles while you prepare the chocolate.
Fit a mixing bowl on top of a saucepan and add 1” of water to the saucepan. Turn onto medium heat and add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to the bowl on top.
2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
Let the chocolate melt for a few minutes, then stir occasionally until melted and smooth.
Use a chocolate dipping tool or two forks to dip, roll, and let excess chocolate fall off of the truffles. Transfer back onto the parchment paper. Repeat with all truffles.
Pour the excess chocolate into a piping bag and drizzle all over the truffles. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, sprinkles, nuts, or crushed freeze dried fruit.
Refrigerate for about 1 hour to fully set the truffles before serving.
