Chocolates to make for christmas what do I do?

[cedar12]

Had an idea I would make some chocolates with my dd for her to give to people for christmas. Does any one have any good recipe ideas the only recipe I have has raw egg in I think its for choc truffles. Also do they keep ok in the fridge. Thanks

Rum truffles

Dry ingredients
3 heaped tablespoons milk powder
1 level tablespoon cocoa
2 level tablespoons icing sugar

Wet ingredients
1 ½ teaspoon rum
½ oz melted butter
3 teaspoons condensed milk
Water

Combine dry ingredients. Make a well in centre and add wet ingredients. Mix to stiff consistency adding 2-3 teaspoons water if necessary. Roll in drinking chocolate powder.

Thanks corrina these sound nice and easy.

Florentines are the easiest.

Melt dark chocolate and some white chocolate (separately). Chop up selection of nuts ( I roast them first) and cherries, sultanas etc.

Put blob of chocolate onto greaseproof paper, sprinkle on nuts and fruit. There you go.

So simple and they look very impressive, especially with red glace cherries (unless you're a cheap cherry snob) and green pistachios.

Thanks
