Chocolate-Peanut Butter Truffles

 

These super yummy truffles are quick and easy to make. They are great for parties or gifts. These sweet treats have an easy portion control and can be enjoyed on occasion.
1 pkg. (8 squares) Bakers Semi-Sweet Chocolate ( I was out of bakers chocolate so I uses chocolate chips)
1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
1 tub (8 oz.) Whipped Topping, thawed
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Microwave chocolate in large microwaveable bowl on high for two minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after one min. Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
Stir in peanut butter until well blended. Cool to room temperature. Gently stir in cool whip. Refrigerate one hour.
Scoop peanut butter mixture with melon baller or teaspoon, then shape into 1-inch balls. Roll in sugar. Store in covered container in refrigerator.
Variations:
Instead of rolling these truffles in the powdered sugar, coat them with one (or more) of the following coatings: unsweetened cocoa powder, chopped peanuts (or chopped pecans-which is what I used), multi-colored sprinkles, chocolate rice crispies (or plain ones) or shredded coconut.
