Truffles are one of my favorite treats to share because they're rich, bite-sized, and easy to arrange on a dessert tray. There are so many variations beyond plain chocolate, too: cookie dough, nuts, fruit, coffee, and even a little beer.
I've gathered 17 truffle recipes here from my kitchen and other food bloggers. The short notes tell you what makes each recipe special, so you can find one that suits your next gathering or homemade gift box.
