Light Chocolate Truffles

Wow!  Truffles that are WW friendly.  One of this tasty morsels is only 62 calories.  Enjoy them with no guilt!!

This recipe makes about 18 truffles.  I haven't had a ton of luck doubling truffle recipes you might be better off just making hte recipe twice or three times or four times...you get the idea.

1/3 C. semisweet chocolate chips
4oz. reduced fat cream cheese
1/3 C. plus 2 tsp. baking cocoa, divided
1 1/4 C. plus 2 tsp. confectioner's sugar

In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth.

In a bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.  Beat in 1/3 C. cocoa and melted chocolate.  Gradually beat in 1 1/4 C. confectioner's sugar.  Coat hands with confectioner's sugar; roll chocolate mixture into 1 inch balls.  Roll in remaining  cocoa or confectioner's sugar.  Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
