Description

Crispy, chocolate-coated truffles filled with rich hazelnut spread and chopped nuts, wrapped in a layer of puffed rice and milk chocolate—perfect for festive gifting or indulgent snacking.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)
  • 1/2 cup crushed wafer cookies
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped hazelnuts
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating)
  • 1 cup puffed rice cereal

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix hazelnut spread, crushed wafer cookies, and chopped hazelnuts until well combined.
  2. Scoop small amounts and roll into balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 15–20 minutes until firm.
  3. Melt milk chocolate chips with coconut oil (if using) in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or in the microwave.
  4. Once smooth, stir in puffed rice cereal until evenly coated.
  5. Dip each frozen truffle into the chocolate mixture, rolling to coat completely. Use a fork to lift and place back on the parchment.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator until set, about 20 minutes.
  7. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy chilled.

Notes

  • Use gloves to roll truffles to prevent melting and sticking.
  • You can use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • Store truffles in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
