Directions:
In heavy saucepan, over low heat, melt chips with butter. Stir in cocoa until smooth. Add condensed milk and vanilla. Cook and stir until thickened and well blended, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Chill until firm enough to handle. Shape into 1 inch balls. Roll in desired coating. Chill until firm. Store, covered in refrigerator.


Gift Giving Notes: Small foil cups can be bought at stores where they carry candy making supplies. You can also buy romantic themed tins and place the truffles in one layer. Place cellophane wrap in the bottom of the tin first, and leave enough to bring it up and over the top of the truffles before closing the tin. Wrap with a gold ribbon and a matching gift tag for giving. If serving the truffles after dinner, place the small foil cups on a doily lined plate.

Makes about 3 dozen
