Dark Chocolate and Red Wine truffles!

Dark Chocolate and Red Wine Truffles

Ingredients

1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
8 Ounces bittersweet chocolate, baking bar (cacao 60%)
6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1⁄2 Cup red wine, cabernet sauvignon
Cocoa powder

Directions

Cut up chocolate and put into a medium sized bowl.

Heat up cream in a pan and bring to a simmer.

Stir in the butter gradually until melted.

Pour cream over the chocolate. Use a spatula to stir until chocolate melts.

Add the red wine and stir until wine is mixed in. (We prefer a cabernet, but you can choose what you like best!)

Pour into an 8x8 dish and allow to chill in refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

Use a metal spoon (ice cream scoop, melon scoop, etc.) to scoop out a truffle.

Coat your hands in cocoa powder and form a ball with the chocolate mixture. Finish by rolling a coat of cocoa on chocolate ball.

Keep refrigerated until you are ready to serve.

Serve and Enjoy!
