Well, I was in a hurry, so the recipe I used was convenient. (I also
used a food processor.)

Besides the wafers, the other ingredients we

Almonds
Corn syrup
Marmalade
Cointreau

You then roll each truffle in powdered sugar and sprinkle grated
orange rind on top. (I had to settle for large decorative flakes of
rind, since when I tried to make it very fine, it just turned into wet
mush.)

Only trouble is, it said you're supposed to let them "ripen" in a cool
place for a week! But I suppose they'll taste good enough to the
recipient anyway.
