at first by wafers i thought you meant a type of chocolate to melt to dip them in, but settled that you must mean the cream filled wafer treats that come in 9 oz packages. I couldnt find ANY just chocolate packages and didnt feel like buying 3 neopoliton so i just grabbed vanilla instead. I also had no way of figuring out how much 1 lb of powdered sugar was so i just guestimated and used 2 1/2 cups. they mixture was rather rock solid after chilling overnight, i may just chill for a few hours next time because i have a very cold fridge, but they were still workable and have gone over well with the family. I plan to use the rest for holiday trays and next time my boyfriend wants them with chocolate wafers, tho they taste allright with vanilla -
this is so easy to make, with great flavor. i mixed everything in the processor, melted the chocolate in the microwave. if you love truffles you will love these.
