Prep Time: 5 Minutes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. sweet butter (unsalted) 1 lb. semi-sweet chocolate 1 cup brandy Unsweetened cocoa --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Cut pieces of butter into a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Melt over low heat. When melted, turn the heat up to Medium. When the butter starts to bubble, give it a good stir, then heat until the bubbles turn to foam. Remove from the heat and let sit for 5 min. 2. Skim off any remaining foam. Carefully pour the clear liquid into a clean saucepan, leaving the brown sediment behind. You have just clarified your butter! (remember this trick for when you serve lobster or steamed artichokes.) 3. Add the chocolate to the clarified butter and stir over a low heat until the chocolate is smooth and melted. 4. Remove from the heat, and cool slightly. Stir in brandy. Refrigerate until firm enough to handle; at least 8 hours. 5. Shape the chilled mixture into 1” balls and roll in cocoa powder to coat. *** Our handmade chocolate truffles are delicious morsels can be stored in the refrigerator for several weeks, so they are the perfect do-ahead treat for the holiday season.
