CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES WITH LIQUEUR
Decadent chocolate truffles, made even more sinful with the addition of your favourite liqueur. The yield will depend on how small you roll the truffles; I get at least 15 usually.

Steps:
- In microwave using medium-low power, melt chocolate in a medium-sized bowl-- the length of time this will take will depend on the strength of your microwave, but expect it to take at least 1 minute.
- Whisk in butter and egg yolk until blended; then whisk in liqueur and icing sugar until smooth.
- Cover and refrigerate until firm enough to shape, about 1 hour.
- Shape mixture into small balls, roll balls in cocoa, then place in tiny foil or paper cups.
- The above will be a messy job on your hands-- they will get quite chocolatey; if mixture gets too soft, return it to the fridge to stiffen up again.
- Keep truffles refrigerated in a covered container; remove from fridge about 30 minutes before serving to take the chill off them.

Steps:
- Preheat a broiler. Spread the nuts on a foil-lined baking sheet and place under the broiler for about a minute to toast them lightly and evenly, stirring them once during the browning. Do not allow them to burn. Set them aside.
- Break the chocolate into a heatproof mixing bowl and place the bowl over a pan of simmering water until the chocolate is nearly all melted. Remove the bowl from the pan of water and stir the chocolate until smooth. Stir in the nuts and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Stir in butter and liqueur. Refrigerate mixture until it is firm enough to handle, an hour or longer.
- When firm, remove the mixture from the refrigerator and allow it to soften for about 15 minutes. Place the cocoa in a shallow dish. Using a spoon, scoop up half-tablespoons of the chocolate mixture, and using your fingertips, form somewhat uneven balls about an inch in diameter and roll them quickly in the cocoa. Place them in a shallow dish and refrigerate until ready to serve. The balls can also be frozen without the cocoa for later use, and then dusted with cocoa just before serving.

Steps:
- Break chocolate up and place in a bowl with the brandy. Place bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir gently to combine until the chocolate is smooth.
- Stir in the butter and egg yolk until well combined (the heat from the chocolate will help melt the butter).
- Refrigerate until firm enough to shape into balls - I made mine slightly larger than standard marbles, but it's up to you and your conscience! Roll each ball in the cocoa (or you could experiment with chocolate hail, crushed pistachio nuts, etc. I used drinking chocolate, as it's sweeter than plain cocoa).
- Return to the fridge (or freeze, as desired). Serve chilled.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your truffles will taste. Use a good quality chocolate, a flavorful liqueur, and fresh cream.
- Temper your chocolate. Tempering chocolate is a process of heating and cooling the chocolate in a specific way. This helps to stabilize the chocolate and make it less likely to seize up or become grainy.
- Chill your truffles before coating them. This will help the coating to set more quickly and evenly.
- Use a variety of coatings. You can coat your truffles in cocoa powder, melted chocolate, chopped nuts, or sprinkles. Get creative and have fun!
- Store your truffles in a cool, dry place. Truffles can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or in the freezer for up to three months.
Conclusion:
Chocolate liqueur truffles are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are relatively easy to make, and they can be customized to your own liking.
