You don’t have to be a Star Wars fan to try this candy. Don’t you want to add candy making to your repertoire? Get started by using any of your favorite candy molds you have laying around at home. These sweet treats are crunchy, creamy and rich in flavor just like the chocolate truffles you would purchase at a local specialty candy shop. The recipe was easy and perfect for a weekend afternoon activity with my kids who are Star Wars fanatics and chocolate lovers. Mom hit a home run with this one!
