Pine Cone Truffles
Pine Cone Truffles
Recipe Type: Dessert
Servings 10
Ingredients
1 cup Heavy Cream
1 tablespoon amaretto
0.25 teaspoon almond extract
18 ounce chocolate chips
1 cup sliced almonds for decorating
Directions
Combine the heavy cream, amaretto, almond extract and salt in a Copper Skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Add the chocolate chips and stir until melted.
Refrigerate the chocolate mixture until it sets, at least 4 hours. It will be a very firm ganache.
Scoop out a chunk of the ganache and shape into a flattened cone.
Starting at the base of the cone, insert the pointed ends of almond slices into the chocolate, working in circles to create a pine cone.
Serve at room temperature.
