Tips:

  • Chill the dough thoroughly before shaping and baking. This will help the truffles hold their shape in the oven and give them a flaky texture.
  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the tastier the truffles will be. Look for a sharp blue cheese, crispy bacon, and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. Just mix it until the ingredients are combined.
  • Be careful not to overcook the truffles. They should be golden brown on the outside and melted and gooey on the inside. Serve them warm.
