So, not everyday, but at least on Monday.
Last week three of my friends, within 1-hour of each other, all sent me a link to a local Living Social deal for a truffle making workshop. Clearly, this means my friends love me and know I’m always up for an adventure…and some chocolate. But once we dug a little deeper and discovered that the class was only a demonstration and not an actual on-your-feet baking class, we decided to make a go of it ourselves.
Becca and I made earl gray orange vanilla truffles (word of advise: use 2 tea bags and you gotta double the cream), cayenne pepper truffles, and southern comfort truffles.
(You might need a tissue; I can see you drooling through my monitor)
We also considered these salted caramel whiskey truffles and grand marnier truffles. Alas, those must come another day!
We learned that making truffles is time consuming, crazy messy, and really isn’t nearly as easy as it looks or sounds in terms of getting the texture of the ganache just right for ball rolling, but they are so delicious!
Especially those southern comfort truffles, which are simply dreamy!
Anyone have a to-die-for truffle recipe to share with us?
