Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 12-16
Ingredients
- 2 cups dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces
- ⅔ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup Guinness beer
- zest of one orange
- 8-10 ounces semi sweet chocolate
Instructions
- Using a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate, heavy cream and beer together until smooth, creamy and the chocolate has completely melted. Let cool to room temp and then refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Now that the mixture has firmed, scoop 1-2 tbs balls and roll in your hands to create a nice shape. Set on a parchment paper covered baking sheet. Repeat until you've used all of the mixture. Return to refrigerator and allow to cool for another 30 minutes.
- Melt semi sweet chocolate in double boiler and dip each truffle into it to coat fully. I like to use a fork to do this. Return to baking sheet and once again chill for 30 minutes.
