Time 16m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1/2 cup cocoa powder, for dusting
1/2 cup crushed candy cane

Steps:

  • Combine extract and cream in a microwave-safe cup and microwave for 1 minute.

  • Place the cocoa powder into a small dish. Gently roll each ball into the powder until coated.
  • Chill in the freezer until firm.
  • Repeat the coating process with crushed candy canes.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for at least 10 minutes before serving. Place the truffles on printed doilies or in small paper cups and serve.

Categories     Candies

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounce(s) bittersweet chocolate
1/4 cup(s) sugar
1 cup(s) heavy cream
1/4 cup(s) whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon(s) pepermint extract
12 - candy canes, crushed

Steps:

  • Pour both types of cream, sugar and extract into a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil on low heat.
  • Chop up the bittersweet chocolate and put into a bowl.
  • Pour boiling cream mixture over the chocolate and stir until smooth.
  • Place bowl in the fridge for 2 3/4 - 3 hours to firm up.
  • Using a teaspoon, scoop out firm chocolate and roll into walnut size truffle. (it gets a little messy, but completely worth it!)
  • Drop truffle into a bowl or container of crushed candy canes and completely cover. I usually shake the container to completely cover instead of rolling it with my fingers to avoid getting candy cane all over your fingers.
  • Put completed truffles into an airtight container and place in the fridge or freezer to firm up.
