    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.
