Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Remove the cooled chocolate sheet cake from the pan and mix in a large mixing bowl until doughy, about 2-3 minutes.
Roll portions of the dough into 2-inch balls and taper one end to form a cone shape; place on a baking sheet.
Press chocolate Frosted Flakes onto the cones, starting from the bottom and working your way up to mimic pine cone scales.
Chill the baking sheet in the freezer for about one hour to firm the truffles.
Melt the chocolate almond bark in intervals in the microwave until smooth.
Dip each cone into the melted chocolate almond bark, allowing excess to drip off before placing them back on parchment.
Dust the truffles with powdered sugar after the chocolate has set.
