can someone tell me the correct amount of ingredients please, is it 2 pkts of the biscuits and 250gm of cream cheese, or less crean cheese, I know the first time I made them was a coiuple of years ago and they were very sticky to make so the next time I think I added more biscuits but they weren't as nice and now can't remember how much of everything to put in, thanks

2 packets biscuits to 250g cream cheese.
I use Tim tams as they are not as sticky as toffee pops.

I use two packets of 'whatever choc biscuits' and a packet of wine biscuits to a 250 cream cheese.

I made it with Oreo biscuits and dipped the wee balls into melted dark chocolate. Very rich.

Like nik, I also include some wine biscuits (you can't taste them) although I vary the amount I use depending on the mix - some are stickier than others.You can add some kremelta to the chocolate to make it a good dippling consistency or some tasteless oil like grapeseed or rice bran.I prefer the kremelta because its natural state is a solid although the oil does the trick.

This year I used less cream cheese as the packets of biscuits aren't as big as they use to be.

I went and broughtmy usual Tim tams for my truffles. Never had I have had any problems with them. Tonight it was a disaster and they are definitely smaller than I remember than the last ones I brought.So I have turned it into a truffle fudge slice and it tastes yummy. Now it has to survive the teenager to set lol.

I saw today in a shop, a chocolate mud cake with truffles for topping. Looked very rich.

I made some for DDs teachers. I used 2 x pkts of toffee pops and maybe 125g of cream cheese. I had read a lot of things online about 250g being way to sticky so I just added a bit at a time and checked it for stickiness ;-)I rolled them in chopped nuts and froze.
