Ingredients
- 8 ounces semi sweet chocolate
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1 ounce bourbon
Optional Toppings
- unsweetened cocoa powder
- chocolate sprinkles
Instructions
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces and place in a heat safe bowl.
- In a small saucepan heat the heavy cream until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and allow to cool for a minute, the cream should not be bubbling, then pour it over the chopped chocolate and allow it to sit for about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir the chocolate slowly until all the chocolate is melted and it is a nice creamy smooth texture. If there are still bits of unmelted chocolate making the mixture lumpy you can place the mixture in the microwave for 5 second intervals until fully melted. Do not overheat the mixture.
- Pour the bourbon into the chocolate and stir until mixed.
- Cover the bowl with the ganache mixture and place in refrigerator to chill. Allow it to chill for at least 2 hours, or until solid. Can be chilled overnight.
- Once the ganache is chilled and solid, remove from the refrigerator. Allow to warm for about 5 minutes prior to scooping it out. Using a melon baller, or cookie scoop, or a spoon scoop out the ganache and roll into balls that are about an inch in diameter. Place these onto a cookie sheet that is lined with wax or parchment paper.
- Once all the ganache is rolled into balls, you can roll into any optional toppings such as sprinkles or unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Place the cookie sheet with the truffles in the fridge to allow to cool for at least 20-30 minutes, this will allow them to firm for serving. Serve immediately or store in refrigerator.
Notes
