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.
