Chocolate Peppermint Truffles. This time of year makes me think of chocolate. So how about some chocolate peppermint truffles? Truffles, cookies, brownies to name a few. It seems like there are always sweet treats going around at parties.
I have been trying to come up with cleaner versions. This chocolate peppermint truffle recipe is another one of those. Only 4 ingredients and just a few minutes!
I got the idea for these peppermint truffles after making my Chocolate Pistachio Truffles. These healthy truffles are so good and they just melt in your mouth.
The best part? They can literally be made in minutes! I used to think truffles were hard to make, but this recipe proved me wrong. It couldn’t be easier.
