Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of the show in these truffles, so it's important to use a high-quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. A good rule of thumb is to use a chocolate that has a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overwork the ganache: When you're making the ganache, it's important to stir it constantly until it is smooth and creamy. However, if you overwork the ganache, it will become stiff and difficult to work with.
  • Chill the ganache before dipping: Before you dip the truffles in the chocolate, it's important to chill the ganache for at least 30 minutes. This will help the ganache to firm up and make it easier to dip.
  • Use a variety of toppings: You can use a variety of toppings to decorate your truffles, such as cocoa powder, chopped nuts, or sprinkles. Get creative and have fun!

Chocolate whiskey truffles are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover chocolate.
