Chocolate Cayenne Truffles - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    9 ounces semisweet chocolate
    3/4 cup butter
    4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
    6 tablespoons cream
    1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
    1/3 cup powdered sugar
    2 tablespoons cocoa powder
    2 teaspoons ginger
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
    Melt chocolate, butter and cayenne in a double boiler, or a bowl in the microwave. Stir well.
    Remove from heat. Mix in cream and 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar. Stir well. (The sugar will stick together in small lumps if you aren't vigorous about it.).
    Cover, and chill overnight.
    Create a mixture of 1/3 cup powdered sugar, the cocoa powder, ginger, and cinnamon.
    Scoop out the chocolate, one tablespoon at a time. Mold it into balls. (this is messy; get used to it.) Roll the balls in the powder mixture to coat them.
    Put them back in the fridge, until serving time.
