Chocolate Cayenne Truffles
Ingredients
- 9 oz. semisweet chocolate
- 3/4 cup butter
- 4 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 6 tbsp. cream
- 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- For powder coating:
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp. cocoa powder
- 2 tsp. ginger
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
For Truffles: Melt chocolate, butter and cayenne in a double boiler, or in a bowl in the microwave. Stir well.
Remove from heat, and then mix in cream and powdered sugar. Stir well. The sugar will stick together in small lumps if you don’t stir vigorously. Cover and chill overnight.
For Powder Coating: Scoop out the chocolate, one tablespoon at a time. Mold it into balls and roll the balls in the powder mixture to coat them. Return truffles to the refrigerator until serving time.
