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.

Wonton Apple Cinnamon Turnovers

It doesn't get any easier than this! These are best eaten right away, otherwise they get soggy. When I say right away, I mean after letting them cool slightly first so the icing doesn't melt right off. 

 Yum! A great way to use an apple that might be a little too soft to eat as a snack.




Wonton Apple Turnovers
Makes 12 Servings

 Ingredients
For the Turnovers
  • 1 large apple, peeled, cored and diced(small)
  • 2  tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
  • 12 wonton wrappers
For the Icing
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon 2% milk
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a small pot, cook the apple with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon for about 5 minutes, or until soft.
  3. Place 12 wrappers on the counter and divide the apple mixture among them.
  4. Use a little water around the edges of the wrappers, then fold them into a triangle. Press along the edges to seal them. Mine weren't perfect! Spray both sides with cooking spray and place on the prepared baking sheet. You could also melt butter and brush them with it.
  5. Combine remaining teaspoon of sugar with 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and sprinkle over the turnovers.
  6. Bake for 6 minutes or until they start to turn golden.
  7. Let them sit for 5 minutes to cool a bit while you prepare the icing.
  8. To make the icing, simply mix the powdered sugar together with the milk until smooth. Drizzle over the slightly cooled turnovers. Serve fresh so they don't become soggy.
