Ina Garten's Chocolate Truffles

By Becks33

Ingredients

• 1/4 C heave cream
• 7 oz. good chocolate, chopped (can use milk, dark, or white)
• 2 tbsp liqueur (and flavor but I recommend Frangelico or Baileys)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Heat cream over med-low heat on a double boiler. (or a bowl set over a pot with 1 inch of water in the bottom)Be careful not to use too much heat.

Add chocolate, stirring constantly. Heat until chocolate is melted and mixture is creamy and blended.

Remove from heat and stir in extract and liqueur.

Cover and chill until firm but pliable. Scoop out mixture by the TBSP and roll into balls between your hands. Place on a cookie sheet covered in waxed paper. Chill balls until serving.

If desired, the balls can be decorated with drizzled melted chocolate, sugar sprinkles, cocoa powder, etc...
