Quick and Easy Chocolate Truffles

I have lost a recipe I had for chocolate truffles made using sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. You use the microwave to melt them together, then add other ingredients. If this sounds familiar to anyone, I would appreciate any help with this.

I believe it came from a magazine insert/advertisement about 15 or 20 years ago. These were the easiest and best tasting truffles I had ever made. I have tried to recreate it from memory, but that just isn't what it used to be!

Might I also add that at anytime when I am looking for a recipe, I got to Food.com (used to be different name) it's a great recipe finder! If you wanna make cookies but don't have a certain ingredient, you can filter your recipes to add or take away an ingredient, I've almost never been disappointed with their recipes!

Nanaroo are you in Oklahoma? That exact recipe was just in our newspaper this morning. Only they are called Brigadeiros & are a popular candy from Brazil. When I read the recipe I decided I can't wait to make it with my kids, when I saw this question, I got on here to post the recipe but you beat me to it! LOL Have you tried it? It sounds delicious & very simple!

Try this:
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 T butter
1/2 c chocolate chips
Cook on med-high til chips are melted, stirring constantly. Turn heat down to med...cook stirring constantly til mixture turns a dark color and easily pulls away from the sides of the pan as you stir. Pour into bowl and allow to cool completely at room temp. Form into 1 inch balls then roll in chocolate sprinkles (or coating of your choice). Store at room temp. If stored in the refirgerator it will harden.

recipeland.com/recipe/v/Magic-Truffles-27025 You can also type in "Truffles with condensed milk" on google, and it brings up a lot of recipes. Most of them are about the same, give or take things like pecans, vanilla or other flavoring. Hope this helps. They sound wonderful. I may have to make a batch myself.
