Number Of Ingredients 5

8 oz butter, softened
2 lb powdered sugar
1/2 c bourbon whiskey
2 c pecans, finely chopped
14 oz semi-sweet baking chocolate

Steps:

  • 1. In a mixing bowl cream together the butter and 1 pound of the powdered sugar with mixer on high speed. Add the bourbon, the remaining sugar ad the nuts and mix well.
  • 2. Chill in refrigerator until firm enough to handle, about 2 hours.
  • 3. Melt chocolate in the top of a double boiler and then allow to cool to room temperature.
  • 4. Form rounded teaspoons of the nut mixture into balls and place on a baking sheet covered in wax paper.
  • 5. Dip balls in into the melted chocolate 2 at a time. Using 2 forks, turn the candy, coating completely with the chocolate. Tap fork to eliminate excess chocolate, then place on on the wax paper.
  • 6. continue with remaining candies. Place baking sheet in the refrigerator until firm enough to handle. Pace in a tightly sealed container and allow to age several days before serving. Will keep refrigerated for several weeks if they last that long.

I'm so glad I found this recipe. It's the perfect way to make fried chicken. The chicken is always crispy and juicy, and the flavor is amazing. I highly recommend it.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try using less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not a big fan of fried chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so crispy and juicy, and the flavor was amazing. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. The chicken is always crispy and juicy, and the flavor is amazing. I love serving it with mashed potatoes and green beans.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't come out crispy at all. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I might try brining the chicken next time to see if that helps.

This was my first time making fried chicken, and it turned out amazing! The chicken was crispy and juicy, and the flavor was out of this world. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This recipe is a keeper! I love how flavorful and moist the chicken turned out. The crispy coating was the perfect touch. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a hit with the whole family.
