ive been a busy little bee today

[starandsnowshaker]

today i have iced and decorated my christmas cake and made rum truffles. just need to let the truffles set before i roll and coat them. gonna give them to neighbours as a small gift as 1 in particular has been so nice and helped me out loads

think ill make some mint baileys truffles next

ooh, mint baileys truffles sound gorgeous - please could you write the recipe, they would go down a treat.

oooh how do you make truffles - i'd love to make some...clever you. lucky neighbours too!

225g dark chocolate
175ml double cream
75ml of alcohol of choice

heat cream in a pan until almost boiling pour over dark chocolate (broken into small peices) i bought dark choc chips makes it easier. mix until all choc melted and smooth then add alcohol. leave to stand for about 2 hours then use a teaspoon and roll into a ball its easier if u put coco powder on ur hands then coat with hatever u want. im doing some with just coco, melted dark chocolate, white choc, and milk and putting some choc sprinkles on some aswell.

bless you - thank you so much for the receipe. Will copy and make. God, my husband will be impressed!!!
