12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
14 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
1 cup Land O Lakes® Heavy Whipping Cream
Powdered sugar
Black, orange and/or your favorite color decorator sprinkles or coarse grain or sanding sugar
*Substitute 10- to 12-ounce bag bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate chips for chopped chocolate.
STEP 1
Place parchment paper onto 2 baking sheets; set aside.
STEP 2
Place chocolate and butter into bowl; set aside.
STEP 3
Pour whipping cream into 1-quart saucepan; cook over medium-high heat 4-5 minutes or until cream comes to a boil. Pour hot whipping cream over chocolate mixture in bowl; let stand 2 minutes. Stir mixture with whisk until smooth. Pour into 8- or 9-inch square pan. Refrigerate at least 1 hour until firm enough to shape.
STEP 4
Sprinkle powdered sugar over clean hands; shape level tablespoons of chocolate mixture into balls. Place onto prepared baking sheets.
STEP 5
Place decorator sprinkles or sugars into bowls; set aside. Roll each truffle in desired coating. Place truffles in container with tight-fitting lid; refrigerate about 1 hour until firm. Store refrigerated.
If mixture is too soft to roll into balls, refrigerate 10 to 15 minutes and try again.
The spookiest holiday is also the sweetest. Halloween desserts with spiders, cauldrons and critters will turn all of your fright into delight.
