Nutella Cake Batter Truffles

Nutella Cake Batter Truffles...yeah, you read this title right!!!

Do you ever have an idea that just lingers, and you can't get it out of your head? This is how this recipe came to be. I love truffles and cake batter and nutella, so why not put them together?

I have been swamped with work recently, but I had some time yesterday, so I gave them a shot. These are some of the best truffles that I have ever had!!!! The nutella gives the truffles such a nice background flavor. The cake batter is there, but it is not overpowering. There is balance.

I used sprinkles, dark and white chocolate. Personally, I liked the dark chocolate better but each choice was delicious!!! These taste amazing and are super simple to whip up. 

Ingredients:

1 stick of softened butter

½ cup of nutella

½ cup of sugar

¼ cup of flour

¾ cup of yellow cake mix

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Coating:

-Sprinkles

-White or Milk or Dark Chocolate (12 oz)

-1 tablespoon of oil (optional)

1. Mix the softened butter together with the sugar.
2. Add in the nutella.
3. Blend in the the remaining ingredients.
4. Place in the fridge for a couple of hours. Overnight is even fine.
5. Roll into balls. Cover with plastic wrap. Place back into the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
6. While the balls are hardening, melt the chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave.
7. Dip the balls into chocolate or roll into sprinkles. Top with sprinkles.
8. Let harden and eat!
