WHY CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES NOW?
Because…let me start again.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen this chocolate truffle (full of alcohol) is your to make any time any place in the future.
It is safe … in quarantine or in our real life.
Although I am not sure what real life is right now?
Are we the fictional story or experiment for some “dreamy writer” in different universe?
Where is the quantum physics when you need it? Tesla are you really dead?
He is not answering so I will have to assume he is dead and in different dimension.
Until I go to sleep…then I will report to you. Just kidding. At this point you know that nobody reports the truth.
Even when they make 26 millions per year. Usually they are sexual predator. (NBC, CBS, ABC…)

It can be just the fictional story.

And I am going to make this recipe and with that determination we are moving towards the kitchen or
to the balcony (in case you are you are using electric cooktop)
SHOPPING LIST
For this amazing boozy chocolate recipe you will need only 3 ingredients:
- chocolate
- heavy cream (33%)
- vodka espresso
Alcohol used for this recipe
I used premium tall grass espresso vodka made in Winnipeg, Manitoba. You use any kind you like.
Chocolate
What kind of chocolate should you use for this recipe?
If you search internet and if you start reading about what kind of chocolate you should use for making homemade truffles you will see the following names:
Ghirardelli, Lindt, Baker’s, Scharffen Berger Chocolate, Valrhona and so on. If you have the money buy the best you like.
For this recipe I used Baker’s chocolate. (semi-sweet). You can use unsweetened or any kind you like.
To me it is important that you love the chocolate. Of course, if you are worried about calories or amount of sugar, please use the chocolate with 70 % cocoa. My favorite is Lindt.
Since we know what chocolate to buy and alcohol to add we can start making…
IMPORTANT: Don’t use chocolate chips for this recipe.
Boozy Vodka Espresso Truffles

Add vodka espresso and stir until incorporated with melted chocolate.
Cover with a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
After 3 hours or longer:
Take teaspoon of the ganache and roll into balls. I don’t like to specify the size of the truffles.

Roll them into balls and coat with cocoa, grounded walnuts, hazelnuts or coconut.
