BROWN SUGAR TRUFFLES

Soooo easy. Take a can of Eagle Brand Condensed milk, add a cup of brown sugar, and a cup of butter. Heat to boiling point in microwave. (You can do this in a saucepan, but the mixture has less chance of burning in the microwave. Beat for 5 minutes with a mixer. This will help dissolve any remaining sugar crystals. Pour into a pan to somewhat harden. Melt chocolate wafers in microwave ( use a glass bowl). Take a melon ball sized scoop of the filling which has been firming up in the fridge. Plop into the melted chocolate. Swirl in the melted chocolate. Plop on wax paper. Sprinkle with any desired topping......nuts, sprinkles, coconut or leave plain. Place in fridge to firm up. These freeze well. I do not fuss over the shape.....but you can if you want. I like the uneveness of the truffle. More interesting.......besides , they don't seem to last long. Great as gifties in little cellophane bags.
