NO NO's (Chocolate mousse balls)


Ingredients

3 large 6.8 oz. each Hershey Almond Hershey Bars
1 box Keebler Vanilla Wafers- Do not substitute, they will not taste as good
1 8 oz. Cool Whip, thawed

Break up bars in a bowl and microwave in 1 min intervals stirring after each til melted. Set aside and let cool all the way.
Take the vanilla wafers and put in a Large zip lock bag, letting the air out. Roll wafers with rolling pin til they are crushed powder like. Pour in a large shallow bowl for dipping.
Sir in the cool whip a little at a time mixing til smooth scrapping the bottom of pan to get all the chocolate mixed.
The mousse should be fairly firm. If the chocolate is too cool it will not mix well so I put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds and continue to stir til smooth.
Take a teaspoon and scoop up some mousse and drop in the crushed wafers. Cover all over and then take and roll in palm of your hand to make a ball. You may need to dip again and roll to completly cover. Drop on wax paper. If balls are too big you won't get 30 balls
Makes about 30-40 med balls.
* if you buy the bars that are usually 10 for $10 during the holidays you will need to use 5 bars. If the balls tend to go flat on the bottom while dipping then put mix in the fridge for about 20 min. then continue to roll. Put them in the fridge til firm and then transfer to a holiday can or container.
