Scrumptious Chocolate Truffles


The lovely Miss Jen is sharing an exquisite chocolate recipe with us today...


Chocolate Truffles

Rich, semi.. bittersweet chocolate truffles
are rolled in creamy scrumptious milk chocolate
and topped with a
special sprinkling of gourmet salt.

Sounds too adventurous?...
I would encourage you to try it~
the combination of flavors is simply wonderful.

Oh... the delights of freshly chopped
Chocolate.


Freshly dipped truffles.....*sigh*

"These are delicious and very easy-to-make chocolate truffles with an

unlikely surprise: a sprinkling of light, fluffly sea salt.
It’s a seemingly unlikely, but absolutely scrumptious and special,
flavor combination that has to be experienced to be believed."
~Mrs. Ree Drummon


There are an endless amount of possibilities
in the ways you can package these goodies for loved ones....
using~ boxes, baggies, ribbons and etc...
I packaged mine in some small clear cellophane bags
and tied them with a crisp red sparkling ribbon.


"There are four basic food groups: milk chocolate,
dark chocolate, white chocolate, and
Chocolate Truffles."
-Anonymous


.....Do Enjoy!

Hope you are having a simply lovely day.
~Many Blessings~
