    Chocolate Chili Truffles


    Source of Recipe


    CD Kitchen

    List of Ingredients




    1/3 cup whipping cream
    1 tablespoon ground dried New Mexico chili powder
    6 ounces semisweet chocolate -- coarsely chopped
    Cayenne -- optional
    1 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa

    Recipe



    Combine cream and ground chili in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart
    pan. Stir over low heat until chili is blended and
    cream is bubbly. Add chocolate and stir over low heat
    just until chocolate melts and blends with cream.

    Taste mixture; stir in cayenne to taste if it lacks
    heat. Pour into a small dish, cover, and chill until
    firm enough to shape (1 1/2 to 2 hours).

    Scoop out rounded teaspoonfuls of the chocolate
    mixture and quickly press and roll them into rough
    1-inch balls. Roll in cocoa to coat. Place balls
    slightly apart on a plate, then cover and chill
    until firm. Truffles can be stored airtight in the
    refrigerator up to 3 weeks.
