Quote cameron-albany (1181 1181 positive feedback) 7:15 pm, Fri 25 Apr #5 Indulgent Chocolate Fudge Brownie (a Jo Seagar recipe) - absolutely divine! I made it a week or so ago and it kept well for about 4-5 days in an air tight container.
This is not meant to upset you but it's actually really confusing reading your posts that contain quote after quote after quote - I see you do it a lot and whilst I'm sure some people find it helpful I just find it confusing

jofes, try doing a search here on the Recipes MB using truffles as the Keyword and Last year as the Date posted option. You'll find a number of earlier threads with choices that should help you on your way to getting the gifts organised. :-))

White chocolate and pistachio truffles. These are easy and divine. 200g white chocolate. 125g cream cheese. 1 tbsp maple syrup. 1 tsp vanilla essence. 1/4 c unsalted pistachios, chopped. 11/4 c coconut- divided measure. Melt chocolate over double boiler until smooth. Using electric beaters, beat chocolate with cream cheese, maple syrup and vanilla till smooth, stir in pistachios and 1/4 c coconut and combine well. Cover and refrigerate till firm. Shape into balls, golfball size and toss in extra coconut. Refrigerate till firm again. Makes 20.

2pkts of any tim tam type bickie crushed and then add 1 tub of cream cheese and mix well. chill the mix for about 30 min, roll into balls and then in coconut and freeze if you want to use later or when frozen choc dip. dont use lite or spreadable cream cheese as the mix will be too soft. quick and easy and soooooooooooooooo yum!

Quote lisapisa2 (230 230 positive feedback) 8:40 pm, Sat 2 Nov #2 Not too sure what Christmas balls are but I recently made Date balls (they taste like chocolate balls IMO)
1c of dates 1c of nuts (I use packet chopped nuts) 2tbsp of cocoa powder 2tsp of vanilla essence
- place in a food processor, and - don't stop until it's a smooth consistency (if that's what you like) - roll into balls - place in fridge - then enjoy
I also add coconut as well (about 1/2c) and pear juice if it's not 'wet' enough

That's the one. Brilliant - thanks so muchly.
Dur - I just couldn't think of the word "truffles" at the time. I already have pre-Xmas brain - not a good sign.
1 cup total of either raisins,coconut, cherries, apricot, nuts.
3 cups rice bubbles.
Add kremlta and mix well then pour into paper lined tin.
I made this many years ago at school! Its really really nice!
set in fridge.

Quote gardie (411 411 positive feedback) 8:16 pm, Mon 4 Nov #7 They are really yummy, always get nice comments when I make them. I love the smell of milk powder too as it reminds me of life on the farm as a kid & Dad mixing the milk from the powder for the calves.

OMG that sounds sooo yummy. Ive decided to do small batches of different truffles etc this year. Have got a selection of recipes written down, but will be adding this one.

Yes but the boxes of Philadelphia are better. A much firmer cheese.
They would be great using the black forrest tim tams.
