These truffles were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a lighter chocolate coating.

I wasn't a big fan of the eggnog flavor in these truffles. I thought it was a bit too strong. However, my husband loved them, so I guess it's just a matter of personal preference.
