Instructions
- Add the chopped chocolate and the butter to a large mixing bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer then pour over the top of the chocolate and butter and let sit, unstirred, for 5 minutes.
- Whisk everything together until thick and dark brown then add in the Irish Cream and whisk to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 6 to 8 hours, preferable overnight.
- Portion the mixture out onto a parchment-lined cookies sheet in 2 teaspoons portions and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll the portions into balls with your palms then dip them in the coating of choice and enjoy.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
- It’s really important to use baker’s chocolate and NOT chocolate chip in this recipe.
- Heavy cream must be used, half & half is not a suitable substitute.
- Butter is optional but does add to the creaminess and richness of the truffles.
- The chilling time is very important since this mixture starts off as a liquid and needs to set fully before being shapeable.
- You can also roll these truffles in chopped nuts or cocoa powder.
