English Toffee Truffles

With the holidays in full swing, it’s nice to have desserts that can please everyone’s palate. This recipe has several variations, which is great for entertaining. You could make up a few batches and create a dessert bar where your guests can pick which one (or ones) they would like to have. However, if your guests are anything like me … they will try them all!

The key for me this holiday season is time. It always gets away from me and I never seem to accomplish as much as I set out to. I love this recipe for its simplicity and the small amount of time it requires.

Tips:

• You can form the cream cheese mixture into a ball around a whole pecan and then roll in one of the toppings.
• Stir finely chopped dried cranberries into the cream cheese mixture.
• Oh My! Chai would make a delicious coating as well.
