Steps:
- Mix butter, maple syrup, and powdered sugar with a hand mixer. Add both extracts and beat until creamy. Stir in walnuts. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Once chilled, scoop 1 tablespoon sized balls of dough and place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Chill again until just ready to dip (at least 10 minutes).
- Melt your candy in a microwave safe bowl according to package directions. Dip each truffle in the bowl of chocolate.
- Do not roll it around, use a spoon to spoon chocolate over the top. Lift onto a fork carefully and tap to remove excess chocolate. Place on a wax-paper lined cookie sheet. I find it best to use a toothpick to help the truffle slide off the fork without disturbing too much of the coating.
- Note: these truffles soften quickly. If you find them getting to soft, re-chill them and only remove a few at a time to dip.
- Chill dipped truffles for just a few minutes, until coating is semi-hard. Meanwhile transfer the remaining chocolate to a squeeze bottle (or a plastic bag with the tip cut off) and pipe swirls or swipes of chocolate over the top for decoration.

If you opted for the creamier filling, using less powdered sugar, starting with using 5 cups and continue adding more as needed. Let balls firm up 3 hours or overnight is always a good option as well, if you like doing your truffles in stages. When dipping your balls in the chocolate they need to be firm enough to dip.
- In a microwave, melt the chocolate in 45 second increments and stir and repeat in microwave until melted, stirring well to keep tempering the chocolate nicely with each increment. Add oil and mix to thin the chocolate for nicer dipping.
