Time 3h20m

Yield Makes 35

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (or 10 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped)
2 tablespoons bourbon
1 cup finely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring cream to a boil; remove from heat, and add chocolate and bourbon. Let stand 3 minutes; whisk until smooth. Transfer chocolate mixture to a medium bowl, and refrigerate, uncovered, until thick and firm enough to spoon out in mounds, about 2 hours.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper. Drop level tablespoons of chocolate mixture onto baking sheet. Refrigerate chocolate mounds until firm, 30 minutes.
  • Place pecans in a shallow bowl. Using hands, roll each chocolate mound into a ball; roll balls in pecans, pressing lightly to adhere, and place on baking sheet. Refrigerate truffles until set, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

These truffles are delicious, but they're a little too boozy for my taste. I think I'll use less bourbon next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my truffles didn't turn out right. They were too crumbly.

These truffles are really expensive to make. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I had a hard time finding chopped pecans at my grocery store. I ended up using whole pecans and chopping them myself.

These truffles are a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of bourbon, but these truffles were still really good. The pecans and chocolate were a great combination.
