  2. Refrigerate uncovered for about 30 minutes, then roll into balls with damp hands and place on cookie sheets lined with wax paper. Refrigerate again for about an hour.

Notes

I used white almond bark for the coating and green sugar sprinkles.

If you're truffles look like they don't hold their ball shape together after they've been in the fridge for 30 minutes, add some more powdered sugar until the batter is thick. See video.

Keep truffles in the fridge.
