I absolutely love truffles. Not the mushroom kind, although, I don’t hate those either. . .
This recipe make a delicious, decadent truffle! And it is super easy!
The chocolate mixture blends very nicely together. The inside of the truffle is very smooth.
The hazelnuts add a lovely little crunch. The hazelnut flavor mixes well with the chocolate.
It is an absolute must to refrigerate the mixture overnight. I tried to roll them a little early and it was a huge mess! The chocolate mixture stuck to everything.
Once refrigerated properly, the truffles rolled easily without much sticking.
The cocoa powder and cinnamon give the truffles a lovely powdered look. The powder also gives just a hint of cinnamon to the truffle.
This recipe is certain to impress when you make them!
