Bailey's Truffles

List of Ingredients




1/2 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup butter (real butter
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate -- chopped (8 squares)
1/4 cup Bailey's Irish Cream



Recipe



Combine cream, butter and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from head. Add chocolate, stirring until completely melted. (Don't put it on the heat or the chocolate will seize or scorch). Stir in Bailey's.

Chill mixture until firm, about 4 hours or overnight. Shape into balls (a melon baller works well, but does a teaspoon and your fingers... just dust them with cocoa if they get too sticky) and roll in desired coatings to cover thoroughly. I use cocoa powder, nut fines, or just leave them "bare naked." Chill. Store in airtight container in the refrigerator.

Makes about 5 dozen truffles.
