This truffle is a good, good truffle. I played around with a few recipes, tweaked my own a little and came up with these beauties. Happy Holidays!
Holiday Hazelnut Truffles
2C semi sweet chocolate
3/4C Nutella
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1T vanilla
2C milk chocolate
Sea Salt, Cinnamon Chips or White Chocolate
Melt semi sweet chocolate in a double boiler and stir in Nutella. Add sweetened condensed milk and stir till it's "fluffy". Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and chill in the fridge for 2 hours (to firm up). Roll into 30-50 balls (depending on the size truffle you desire) and place on a baking sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes. Melt milk chocolate and dip your truffles. Line on a baking sheet and sprinkle with sea salt (as I did mine) or drizzle with melted cinnamon chips or white chocolate... whatever you like! Allow to set and then arrange in little papers or a box. These are delicious and make a nice gift.
Tiff, these look beautiful, and I'm sure they tast wonderful. You are a professional dipper! Love the sea salt:)
ReplyDeleteThey look and sound delightful!
ReplyDeleteOh, these truffles are so beautiful! That is a WOW list of ingredients and I love that you dipped them in chocolate! Great recipe and such a wonderful gift (do they travel well? To France?) Happy Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteA Nutella truffle sounds fabulous! I've been meaning to tell you how much I've enjoyed the salt I bought from you. I used it in my World Peach Cookies and it was great. It always feels like a splurge when I use it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThese sound amazing...and the sea salt is a perfect topping! I'll have to try that on my next batch of truffles!
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Denver...Truffles (bought at the store) were a tradition of ours.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've always wanted to make some....this looks totally do-able!
