Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Mixture
- 19 ounce brownie mix (for 13×9 inch pan size)
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- ¼ cup water
Topping
- Sprinkles, for coating truffles
Instructions
- Heat the Brownie Mix: Place the dry brownie mix in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until the mix reaches 165°F using an instant-read thermometer, approximately 90-120 seconds. This step ensures any bacteria in the flour are eliminated.
- Combine Ingredients: Let the heated mix cool on the counter for 5 minutes. Then add the corn syrup, chocolate syrup, and water. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth with no lumps.
- Form the Truffles: Put sprinkles in a shallow dish. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for the truffles to rest on. Slightly dampen your hands. Scoop 1 tablespoon of the brownie mixture at a time and roll it into a ball with your hands. Roll each ball through the sprinkles to coat them completely, then place on the lined baking sheet.
- Chill: Refrigerate the rolled truffles for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature as desired.
Notes
- Heating the brownie mix before using is important for food safety to eliminate any harmful bacteria from uncooked flour.
- Keep your hands damp while rolling the truffles to prevent sticking; use a bowl of water or a damp towel nearby to re-moisten hands as needed.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Place parchment or wax paper between layers to prevent sticking.
