Baileys strawberry truffles<\/h3>\n

So I couldn’t resist another Baileys strawberries and cream recipe… can you blame me?! Alcoholic strawberry milkshake is my thing now. Honestly, its delicious. But anyway, TRUFFLES HAPPENED! They are delicious, they are moreish, and they are insane.<\/p>\n

In a similar way to my Baileys strawberries & cream fudge<\/a>, I thought this recipe was best suited to white chocolate. It is obviously going to be sweet, but most truffles are to be honest. However, I like them that way. They’re sweet little treats that you can enjoy in the evening, or make a gift out of them even.<\/p>\n

Shape<\/h3>\n

The only thing about truffles, is that they’re a little bit faffy to make. The best way I find to make the actual ball shapes, is to use a melon baller<\/a> – it makes life SO much easier. You can use two teaspoons if you like, but this truffle mixture is quite firm, so you’ll probably get oddly shaped truffles.<\/p>\n

Truffles<\/h3>\n

I purposely made this mixture a bit harder set than other truffle mixtures can be because of the Baileys inside it. A standard truffle mixture is basically a ganache, but because the Baileys is a thin creamy liquid, you don’t want all the usual amount of cream. Therefore, I used less cream compared to usual, to make up for the baileys.<\/p>\n

Handy tools<\/h3>\n

After your truffle mixture has been set, and then balled and then chilled its the slightly faffy decorating. I used this set of dunking tools<\/a> to make my life easier as well. The main one I used is the circular one, which basically acts like a scoop. It’s basically a bottomless spoon, so once you’ve dunked it, its less likely to pull the melted chocolate back off.<\/p>\n

Adaptations<\/h3>\n

You can make this recipe with regular baileys if you want, and you can use the same amount! Or even use the chocolate version, or the orange truffle, or anything else. If you use milk<\/a> chocolate, you will want to use 100ml of double cream. If you want to use dark<\/a> chocolate, increase the double cream to 150ml of double cream!<\/p>\n
