Another yummy recipe which I had come across. I tried it and it was delicious.
Hand Rolled Chocolate Truffles
Ingredients
1/2 cup heavy cream 12 ounces dark chocolate chips (60%-75% cocoa) 1/4 cup butter 2 chocolate candy bars (70%-85% cocoa) cocoa powder (sifted) 2 tablespoons liquor (optional) 1 pinch salt Directions: 1 Begin with a saucepan. Over medium heat, bring cream just to a boil. Remove from heat. 2 Add the 12oz of chocolate to the hot cream. Stir until smooth. 3 Let sit for a few minutes, add butter 1/2 Tablespoon at a time. Stir until smooth. Stir in optional liquor or flavoring with the pinch of salt. 4 Transfer to bowl for refrigerating. Refrigerate until firm. Usually about 3-5 hours. 5 Form into 3/4inch balls and put back in refrigerator. 6 Sift cocoa powder into medium size bowl. 7 Break chocolate bars into small shards. In metal bowl, over low heat, heat chocolate stirring and scraping sides with a rubber spatula the entire time. Once smooth, remove from heat. Let sit for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 8 Bring out truffles and one by one roll them in the melted chocolate and drop them into the cocoa powder. After you've done 5 or so roll them around the powder until covered and set them aside. You may need to reheat the chocolate mid way through, just follow the same steps. 9 After all are covered in cocoa powder, take a med-large sifter and roll them around to remove excess cocoa. 10 Refrigerate.
