Eggnog Truffles 2 cups white
chocolate chips
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup eggnog
CHOCOLATE CUPS
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon shortening
CHOCOLATE CUPS: Melt chips with shortening in heavy, small saucepan over very
low heat, stirring constantly. Spoon about 1/2 tablespoon of the chocolate
mixture into each of about 36 small foil candy cups. With back of spoon, bring
some of the chocolate up side of each cup. Refrigerate until firm.
TRUFFLES: Melt chips with butter and eggnog in heavy, medium saucepan over low
heat, stirring occasionally. Pour into pie pan. Refrigerate until mixture is
thick, but soft, about 2 hours. Spoon truffle mixture into pastry bag fitted
with large star tip. Pipe mixture into chocolate cups. Truffles can be
refrigerated 2-3 days or frozen several weeks. Hint: To remove foil cups, cut
slit in bottom of the cup and peel foil up from bottom. Do not peel down from
the top edge. Makes about 36 truffles. |
