These strawberry fudge balls, from Sandy, are made like Bourbon balls, with crushed vanilla wafers, melted chocolate, and strawberry preserves, along with cream cheese and almonds.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels, melted
  • 3/4 cup vanilla wafer crumbs
  • 1/4 cup strawberry preserves , Smuckers
  • 1/2 cup almonds or pecans, toasted and finely chopped*

Preparation:

Beat cream cheese at medium speed with a hand-held electric mixer until creamy. Beat in melted chocolate until smooth. Stir in vanilla wafer crumbs and strawberry preserves; cover and chill for 1 hour. Shape into 1-inch balls; roll in toasted chopped almonds or pecans, and chill. Yield: 4 dozen.
*To toast nuts, spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in a 350° oven, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes. Or, toast in an ungreased skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden brown and aromatic.

"Raspberry and chocolate go great together so I made this with raspberry preserves, White chocolate chips. Also, I found rolling them in the nuts didn't work out so great. So I blended the pecans into the mix and rolled the balls in powdered sugar after. They turned out great!"
