Chocolate Truffles
Baking and Desserts • Danish
Description
These candies made from ganache are called truffles due to their resemblance to the eponymous mushrooms. Typically, something delicious and alcoholic is added to the ganache for flavoring: brandy, rum, or liqueurs. It's best to use special baking chocolate in the form of drops or wafers for the truffles, but you can also make them with regular chocolate bars.
