TIRAMISU BON BONS

Steps:

• Using a melon baller or small ice cream scoop, spoon out balls from the tray of tiramisu to create the bon bons. Freeze the bon bons on a cookie sheet for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Melt the bittersweet chocolate in a double boiler until smooth and glossy. Dip frozen tiramisu bon bons in melted chocolate until covered on all sides. Place the bon bons on a cookie sheet covered in parchment or waxed paper and return them to the freezer. Take bon bons out of freezer and let them thaw for about 15 minutes before serving.

BUTTERSCOTCH BON-BONS

Steps:

• Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler over barely simmering water, whisking until completely melted. Melt butterscotch morsels in a large glass bowl in the microwave on 50 percent power, whisking after 1 minute, and then returning to microwave for 1 more minute.
• With a small ice cream scoop, scoop as many ice cream balls as desired, place them on a sheet tray, and put tray in the freezer for about 30 minutes or until re-frozen. Drizzle melted butterscotch and chocolate over ice cream scoops. Return to freezer until ready to serve.

PEANUT BUTTER BON BONS

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine Vanilla frosting, peanut butter and margarine with a fork until well blended.
• Stir in crumbs until well mixed.
• Form into 1-inch balls.
• Chill 1 hour.
• In small saucepan, melt Chocolate frosting over low heat, stirring occasionally.
• DO NOT OVERHEAT-- THE FROSTING WILL BECOME STICKY AND WON'T SET UP PROPERLY.
• Dip chilled balls in melted frosting.
• Allow excess to drip off.
• Place on waxed paper.
• Let stand at room temperature until dry, about 6 hours.
• TIP: If the frosting used for coating thickens, gently reheat.

BONBONS

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine margarine, confectioners' sugar, condensed milk, coconut, chopped walnuts and vanilla. Stir well. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or until mixture has thickened enough to roll into balls. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place close together, but not touching, on cookie sheets. Freeze until hard.
• While bonbons are freezing, line a cookie sheet or flat surface with waxed paper. Combine chocolate chips and shortening in the top of a double boiler, over, not in, simmering water. Stir until melted. Using a toothpick or a fork, dip each bonbon in the melted chocolate. Place on waxed paper to dry. When chocolate has hardened, store bonbons in plastic bag in the freezer.
