Baker's One Bowl Chocolate Truffles recipe

About 6 dozen or 18 servings, four truffles each

1 package (8 squares) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate
4 ounces (1/2 of 8-ounce package) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 tub (8 ounces) COOL WHIP or COOL WHIP French Vanilla Whipped Topping, thawed

Suggested coatings: powdered sugar, finely chopped PLANTERS Pecans,
    toasted BAKER'S ANGEL FLAKE Coconut, grated BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking
    Chocolate, unsweetened cocoa powder, colored sprinkles

MICROWAVE chocolate in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted. Stir with wire whisk until chocolate is completely melted. Add cream cheese; stir until cream cheese is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Cool to room temperature. Gently stir in whipped topping. Refrigerate 2 hours or until mixture is firm enough to handle.

SCOOP chocolate mixture into 1-inch balls with melon baller; place on waxed paper-covered baking sheets. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.

ROLL in suggested coatings, working with a few truffles at a time. (Truffles do not need to be perfectly round and smooth - slightly rough appearance is considered typical.) Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

Size-Wise:
Chocolate truffles are rolled in a variety of coatings for a sweet treat that is perfect for gift-giving or for serving on a special occasion.

Make it Easy:
Roll scooped truffle mixture into 1-inch balls while coating with the toppings.

Note:
Truffle mixture softens quickly, so when rolling, only remove about 1 dozen truffles from refrigerator at a time. If truffles soften too much to roll, return to refrigerator until firm
