No Bake Nutella Balls (chocolate truffles)

Here’s a new favourite truffle I added to our Christmas cookie boxes this year. I’ll share with you how to make No Bake Nutella Balls covered in chocolate with a few sprinkles to make them look festive. These were so delicious. I had a hard time not eating all of them myself. You can crush the graham crackers yourself, but I just purchased a box of crumbs.

  1. Would you say these are chewy or crispy? I just threw my recipe out, it had honey in it, and the last couple of batches just didn't taste right, On the lookout for a replacement, I like chewy.

    1. I guess I would describe these as soft but not in a chewy sort of way, a little bit more on the cakey side. If that makes sense. If you like chewy you’ll probably want to try this one first http://jennys-cookbook.blogspot.ca/2011/07/best-chewy-chocolate-chip-cookie-recipe.html ! Good luck. I’m a fan of chewy too! Although I’ve been sold on crisp as well now that I’ve made Chocolate Chip Rugelach http://jennys-cookbook.blogspot.com/2011/10/chocolate-chip-rugelach-cookies.html . Although it’s a bit more work than your average chocolate chip cookie. Totally worth the effort though!
