Ingredients

  • 7 ounces Heavy Cream
  • 2 ounces Light Corn Syrup
  • 15 ounces Dark Chocolate, Unmelted, tempered, chopped
  • 1/2 ounce Butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 fluid ounces Liqueur
  • 2 pounds Dark Chocolate, Melted and tempered; for precoating and dipping

Directions

  1. Combine cream and corn syrup and bring mixture to a boil.
  2. Pour this the chopped chocolate and let sit for about one minute.
  3. Whisk together and check to see if all the chocolate is melted. If need be, place briefly over a warm water bath, but do NOT exceed 94 degrees.
  4. Stir in soft butter and stream in the liqueur; mix until homogeneous.
  5. Pour ganache into a large shallow pan. Allow it rest at room temperature until slightly firm. Agitate/stir around the ganache with a spatula to break it up a tad.
  6. Scoop truffles onto parchment paper; let sit until firm enough to handle.
  7. Roll truffles into balls and pre-coat in tempered chocolate. Dip once more after the first layer of chocolate is set.
  8. Roll in cocoa powder if you wish and serve.
