- These truffles are so easy to make, and absolutely delicious! I used the regular digestive biscuits, but any other biscuits can be used, as long as they are plain. Make sure not to add too much cream, otherwise the truffles won't harden, then they will be a complete mess.
- I used 2 tablespoons of baileys, and I thought that was good amount, the liquor is not overpowering, but you can tell it's there. It makes the subtle flavour even more spectacular.
- The milk chocolate can be replaced with dark or white chocolate, it's entirely up to one's taste, just make sure it's nice and smooth before you coat the truffles, otherwise they won't look even. And there you go, a fantastic festive dessert for a delicious Christmas.
