Truffles


Some baking again, this time for my host family for Easter.  (:  This is probably the easiest recipe I've ever seen, and quite quick as well.  But  at the same time a really nice thing to take to some one or just enjoy yourself...  ;)

You need:
300 g of chocolate (milk, dark or white, whichever you like the best)
100 ml of cream
1 tbsp of icing sugar
20 g of butter
+ something to decorate them with


- Put all the chocolate and the cream in a bowl and melt them.  The easiest way is to place the bowl on top of a saucepan which has water in it, put the whole thing on a stove and just stir occasionally while the chocolate is melting.

- After it's all melted let cool down a bit before adding the icing sugar and butter.  Then refrigerate till firm.


-  If you want to use little paper cups, get them ready!


- When the dough is fairly hard, take about a teaspoon and roll it into a ball.  (This photo is not demonstrating my teaspoon, just showing that it'll become quite stiff.  :P)


- Roll your truffle in the decorations you've picked.


- Tadaa!  Done.  Easy as.


- If you're giving them away as a gift you might want to wrap them nicely. 



Sweet Easter,

Liisa
