I finally decided to make some truffles. They are easier to make than I thought and the added dates took me back to my primary school days. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
300g Chocolate (200g milk, 100g dark)
4 x Dates, diced
2 x Teaspoon Rum
2 x Tablespoons Clear Honey
250 ml Double Cream
30g Cocoa Powder
30g Icing Sugar
Method:
Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a bowl over simmering water.
Stir until the chocolate as it gently melts.
Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Mix the dates, cream, rum and honey together.
Fold in the chocolate.
Chill the mixture for at least 3 hours.
Take small pieces of the mixture and roll between your fingers to form balls.
Mix the icing sugar and cocoa together and coat each truffle.
Pop them into truffle cases and refrigerate.
Please note:
Before rolling the truffles, rinse your hands in cold water to stop the chocolate from melting.
Should make between 25 – 30 truffles.
Will last for up to a week in the fridge.
