Looking for a fun Fourth of July dessert? These S’more Truffle Bites will be the big hit with the young and the old.
It never fails that after lunch my kids become ravenous little human beings. They wake up from their naps starving as if they’ve never seen food before. Then low and behold dinner rolls around and nothing sounds good to them, or they are full. I’m just going to assume that this happens with most families.
I usually oblige to their hunger panes and let them dive into the refrigerator or scour the shelves for food. The fridge is typically stocked with fresh vegetables, fruit, and cheese. The pantry shelves have chips, nuts, and gummies. This past weekend I brought out the chocolate to make them a special treat… S’more Truffle Bites.
I wanted to make it a nice treat that you couldn’t just find on the pantry shelves or in the refrigerator. These truffle bites are great afternoon treats and they are perfect for any upcoming holiday plans. In fact, anything having to do with S’mores are ideal for the summer and the fourth of July.
