Chocolate Frangelico Truffles ~ Elegantly rich in style and in flavor, these truffles are a great holiday dessert.
Every year for Thanksgiving I make these truffles along with my pumpkin pie. They are perfect for light dessert eaters who want just a nibble of something sweet and a rich treat for others who catch there second eating wind when the word dessert is mentioned . .. ahem, I’m including myself in the latter.
I love the taste of Frangelico and love how it pairs with chocolate even more. In fact I love it so much I’ve kept this truffle simple in design, by that I mean, no rolling these truffles in finely ground hazlenuts and no heavy dusting of cocoa powder. I wanted the flavor to come through uninterrupted.
