Chocolate Peanutty Bugle Truffles



I had come across a recipe for Chocolate and Peanut Butter Truffles by Cookies and Cups that I started to make, but found them to be incredibly annoying in their preparation after making about 120 of the little beasts. Plus, my husband's feedback was that they had too much Bugle taste and not enough peanut butter...his favorite. So, I decided to revamp the same recipe using the same ingredients (basically) and different preparation. My husband was thrilled to death with the results.

So, here we go!

Ingredients

1 bag Bugles, lightly crushed
1.5 bags semi chocolate chips
2 cups peanut butter, creamy (although I am sure that chunky would be rockin')
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk

Directions:

1) In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except chocolate chips. Mix until well blended.
2) Form filling into 1 inch balls and set into freezer to chill for about 15 minutes.
3) Melt chocolate chips utilizing a double boiler. If chocolate thickens up, mix in some canola oil.
4) When melted, dip balls into chocolate and coat well. Remove allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Return to tray and place back in freezer.
