St Patrick's Day Truffles
Sometimes I am more excited about the packaging then the actual treat. I have a weird addiction to bakery boxes, labels and just cute packaging. For St Paddy's Day I had this idea to make gold truffles tucked away in some sort of rainbow box. Then in honor of this Irish holiday I had to make some sort of boozy truffles. I found a recipe for Salted Caramel Whiskey Truffles here, and that sounded perfect. They were a bit soft for truffles. I had to freeze the balls then roll them in gold luster dust. Tasty though. I also made some Irish Cream Truffles, for those I just made a basic ganache but replaced the heavy cream with Irish Cream. So simple, yet I know...brilliant. These worked a bet better for forming truffles and definitely packed a boozy punch. The Irish would be proud.
