Less than 1 star actually, as the chocolate will not set and you cannot make any balls. Total waste of time and ingredients on this one. Something is wrong with the recipe.

Made these this week, the truffles never got firm enough to dip. I started with 2 hrs in fridge, nope. Four hours in fridge, nope. Finally left them in for two nights and today tried my best to shape and dip them. Nope. Epic fail.
Just too soft to do anything with them. Not sure what to do with them now. The flavor was wonderful, but could not make balls or truffles or anything else with them. What can I do with the chocolate now?
I used a bag of Toll House semi-sweet chocolate chips, weighed at 18 oz/finely chopped. I even used a scale to make sure they were 1.75 oz. I can’t figure out what I did wrong.

I’m having trouble getting the chocolate to set. It’s been in the fridge for two days now and I think I did something wrong. I put it in the freezer and it didn’t even freeze one bit. I need help. What should I do now?

Can you use regular cream and a pumpkng spice syrup instead of the creamer? I can’t get hold of it in the UK

Have you ever tried these as an addition to coffee rather than just hot chocolate? Kind of like converting a plain coffee to like a pumpkin spice mocha? Do you think you would just adjust the size of the truffle to a smaller version? Or maybe keep the same size?

In reply to Kelly Crumrine. Hey Kelly, I have not used baking chocolate for this recipe. I typically use pound plus from Trader Joe's. It has 72% cacao which is less than baking chocolate. If you plan to use them just for the hot chocolate I think baking chocolate would be fine, if you plan to eat them as truffles as well I wouldn't suggest it. I hope that helps, I would love to hear how it goes once you give it a try!
