    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Pip_OH I entered these in the baking contest this weekend and won first place. I used ALmond Extract and rolled each one in finely chooped almonds. They were fantastic

    List of Ingredients




    8 ounces of semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
    1/2 cup whipping cream
    1/4 cup unsalted butter
    2 tsp vanilla OR 4 tsp favourite liquer

    Recipe



    Place whipping cream and chocolate in a heavy saucepan over low heat and stir occasionally until chocolate melts. Add butter and continue stirring until butter is melted. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Add liquer or vanilla. Let sit in refrigerator until hard (about eight hours or so). Scoop by rounded teaspoon and form into balls, then roll in finely chopped nuts (ground almonds are heavenly), cocoa, icing sugar, or coconut or dip in chocolate. Makes 36-48.
