Chocolate Raspberry Ornaments
Ingredients:
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
15 vanilla wafers with creme, crushed
1/3 cup seedless raspberry jam
Finely chopped toasted almonds
Toasted coconut
Instructions:
Melt chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth. Allow cooling slightly. Place cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Pour melted chocolate over cream cheese and mix together until very smooth. Fold in vanilla wafer crumbs being sure to cover all the crumbs with the chocolate mixture. Add seedless raspberry jam, and mix well until completely integrated. Refrigerate 3 to 4 hours or until chocolate is firm. Once firm, shape chocolate mixture into balls. Roll half the candy balls in the toasted almonds and the other half in the toasted coconut. Store in the refrigerator to keep them from becoming too soft.
Am I missing something in this recipe? I have read it several times and no where do I see where to put in the raspberry jam! Do you roll the balls in it to get the coconut or almonds to stick? OR is it an ingredient you put in with the cookie crumbs? Please, does some one know this recipe and can tell me how to fix it! Thanks! Happy Baking!!
Thanks for pointing my omission: I edited it. You were right: the raspberry jam gets mixed in with the wafer crumbs.
