You can use a milk chocolate instead of dark. I received the recipe with a box of these truffles as a gift.Some were rolled in coconut. Ingredients:
6 ounces dark chocolate |
2 tablespoons almond liqueur or 2 tablespoons orange liqueur |
3 tablespoons sweet butter |
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/2 cup ground almonds |
1 3/4 ounces grated chocolate |
Directions:
1. Melt chocolate with the liqueur in a double boiler; stir until well blended. 2. Add the butter stir until melted. 3. Stir in the almonds and sugar. 4. Leave mixture in a cool place until firm enough to roll into balls. 5. Put the grated chocolate on a plate and roll the balls in the chocolate to coat them. 6. Put the truffles in paper candy cups and chill. 7. Will keep for 2 weeks in a cool place. |
