CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Most of you who know me, know that I do not favor chocolate, but lately I have found that I do have a small part of me that likes dark chocolate and bittersweet truffles. So I thought it would be a great way to start out my blog with this video recipe for chocolate truffles. I haven't tried making them yet, but they look super easy.  All you have to do is follow a few simple steps.  This video recipes makes peppermint flavored truffles, but you could easily substitute another flavoring to your liking. I think I could savor a raspberry chocolate truffle anytime of the day. YUM!  

Don't these look delectable!  If you prefer just plain chocolate and cocoa, leave the flavoring out.  Use the finest chocolate you can get your hands on.  Afterall, you deserve it!  Happy Truffle Eating...
