Chocolate Truffle Bars
These easy to make deep chocolate bars have a creamy, chocolaty center and are filled with walnuts. Chocolate Truffle Bars Oh chocolate, how I love thee! Chocolate is one of those things that if I keep it around I will eat it which is also the reason you don’t see a lot of chocolate recipes here. Chocolate is my weakness. I decided however to make these yesterday, they are so easy to make and delicious. No one will guess it all started with a cake mix. You should be able to have them in the oven in less than 15 minutes. They make a really rich cookie bar, so be sure to cut them into small bars, not like the ones in the pictures here. Be sure to remember these chocolate truffle bars at Christmas time, they would make a wonderful addition to a cookie tray. I would cut them to the size of mini muffin cups and serve them that way.
