One bite wonders! I made the truffles ahead of time and then placed 3 truffles in a cellophane bag and then tied it off with a festive Christmas ribbon. I handed these out to my co-workers during the Christmas holidays. My family loves these scrumptious delights. My daughter recently taught her 7 year-old bonus son and his 10 year-old cousin to make this simple elegant dessert. The boys loved the fact they could eat the dough!
