AMARULA CREAM TRUFFLES: A HOMEMADE GIFT!
These sinfully rich chocolate truffles will make a lovely gift in the festive season! They're easy to make and they also freeze well. Use different "finishes" for a professional look. I give the metric amounts as well. Time to make is very hard to pin down, so I guessed that. I also have no idea how many chocolates an individual cook might make -- depends on size and whether you use a filling like a nut -- so had to guess.

Steps:
- Break up the chocolate into small pieces.
- In a saucepan with a thick bottom, melt the chocolate and the cream together over low heat. Give it a stir with a fork now and then.
- Cut up the butter and when the mixture has almost melted, add the butter, and stir until the mixture is smooth. Keep heat very gentle!
- Remove from heat and stir in the Amarula Cream.
- Cool the mixture and let it set (not too long) in the fridge.
- Have ready for finishing your truffles: sifted cocoa powder, dried coconut (dessicated coconut)/finely ground almonds/finely crushed peanuts/sifted icing sugar (confectioner's sugar), pine nuts, or finely split almonds. You could also enclose glacé cherries in some, or a nut of choice.
- Use a small spoon to scoop out walnut-sized pieces of the chocolate mixture, shape into balls or ovals, and roll each one in one of the "garnishes" suggested.
- You could also make up a white, thin icing with confectioners' sugar and water, and decorate some truffles with thin white lines.
- Keep in one layer and keep cool. They can be frozen. But they should be served at room temperature.

- Chop the chocolate into chunks and place in a heatproof bowl together with the cream. Microwave for exactly 1 minute. Do no overheat as the residual heat of the bowl will be sufficient to melt any bits of chocolate.
- Whisk until the chocolate is melted and completely smooth. Chop the butter into small pieces and add to the warm chocolate. Whisk once again until the butter is melted and incorporated into the chocolate. Stir in the Amarula liqueur.
- When you are ready to roll the truffles, sift the cocoa powder onto a side plate. On a second plate, break the gold leaf into rough, irregular pieces.

- In a large pan, pour in the cream with the coffee grounds, bring the cream to the boil. While heating put the chocolate and Amarula Cream Liquor in a glass bowl.
- Once the cream has come to the boil, take off the heat and leave for 5 minutes for the coffee to infuse. Strain through a fine sieve over the chocolate. Mix until you have a smooth ganache and the chocolate has melted through. Allow to cool at room temperature, cover with cling film. Leave to set. If you put the mixture in the fridge, then it will become too hard to roll.
- I use food-grade disposable gloves to roll the truffles, means you won’t be covering the whole kitchen in chocolate prints.
- Cover a work surface with parchment paper, using teaspoons of the mixture, roll the ganache into even balls. Repeat until all the mixture is rolled.
