GUINNESS TRUFFLES
 

GUINNESS TRUFFLES

3/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 pound milk chocolate
1 pound dark chocolate
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons Guinness Stout
Cocoa powder

Melt butter and cooking chocolate over hot water. Add cream and whisk
until mixed well. Remove from heat and stir in Stout. Chill until
firm.

Melt dark chocolate over hot water, stirring until smooth. Remove from
heat.

With chilled chocolate and stout mixture, make 1-inch balls with a
spoon and by rolling between your cocoa-dusted hands.

Dip balls in warm dark chocolate until coated. Place in a plate of
cocoa power, roll to coat and refrigerate until very firm. Store in
layers in an airtight container, placing a piece of parchment paper
between the layers. Store truffles in the refrigerator.
